Fractional executives are professionals who offer their management services to organizations on a for-hire, part-time basis, also known as fractional work. These executives typically have extensive experience in a business environment in roles such as chairperson, owner, CxO, senior vice president, vice president, or director. Their skills can be focused in one discipline or be more broad-based, depending on their experience.

Fractional leadership is a distinct model that allows businesses to scale leadership resources efficiently. It can be useful in situations where companies need long-term strategic input but do not require daily, hands-on executive involvement. They differ from business consultants and part-time workers because they take an active leadership or management role in the company that hires them.
