ADEA is your fractional director of operations for hire.
Founded by Leah Bowers and Gabrielle Sherman, Adea works with growing teams at critical inflection points to streamline operations, strengthen systems, and reduce noise. We solve operational bottlenecks, tool sprawl, and unclear ownership for founders, operators, and functional leaders who need their systems to keep pace with growth.
Every engagement begins with our six week Signature Adea Assessment that maps end to end workflows across people, processes, and tools, validates assumptions with data, and delivers a prioritized roadmap with quick wins, cost savings, and targeted automation and AI opportunities. We work inside your existing stack, translate findings into a plan you can execute, and support implementation through Adea and our trusted partners.
