For 3+ years at Philip Morris International, I led teams through Fortune 500 hypergrowth — 200% team expansions, overnight market pivots, and pressure to scale without fracturing culture or operational integrity. Sound familiar?
Series A+/B+ startups face the same fire, just hotter and faster. I mastered building leadership ecosystems and organizational architecture in that corporate crucible — now I partner with scaling-stage companies like yours to transition from founder-led to institutionally scalable without sacrificing agility.
I fix the “growth vs. culture” paradox of scaling.
Series A+/B leaders hire me when:
Founders are becoming bottlenecks, but standard “leadership training” feels superficial.
Teams are siloed despite hiring “top talent,” with misalignment costing 20%+ productivity.
Investors demand predictable scaling but rigid processes threaten innovation speed.
Culture feels like a poster slogan rather than a daily operating system.
I don’t retrofit corporate playbooks. I co-design systems that hardwire your DNA into scaling.
Most advisors focus on either leadership or org design. Scaling requires both, staggered:
LeadDev
Decision frameworks for leadership alignment from C-suite to frontliners leads
Founder-to-leader transition roadmaps
Executive rituals to sustain strategic focus
OrgDev
90-day engagements to phase in systems without disruption
Metrics tracking leadership/organizational sync
Built to absorb acquisitions, new markets, or pivots
Powered by PillarFlex
Short-term sprints or long-term engagements to phase in adaptive, flexible systems
Metrics tracking leadership or organizational behaviors tied to objectives
Embedded frameworks to accompany you in every step of the way
I don’t just talk about systems — I’ve built them in high-stakes environments where broad perspective capacity is key. Here’s what former colleagues say about my work at PMI:
Leadership & Decision-Making
“Dorian tackles challenges from every angle. She doesn’t just solve problems — she designs systems to prevent them.”
— Braulio Chireno | Order to Cash Manager, PMI
“Her proactive approach and problem-solving skills consistently exceed expectations. She’s a key contributor to team success.”
— Carlos Constanzo | Senior Commercialization Lead, PMI
Execution & Team Impact
“Dorian gets things done efficiently while attending to every detail. She motivates teams with energy and follow-through.”
— Massiel Nazario | Business Development Manager, PMI
Systems That Scale
“She managed brands like a product expert, but her real strength was designing customer experiences that scaled. Her systems made everyone feel heard.”
— Pily Yanez | Assistant General Manager, PMI
Based in the Dominican Republic, I work globally with Tier 2 & 3 scaling-stage tech companies — applying Fortune 500 operational rigor without the bureaucracy and reactivity at prices that won't break the bank.
Series A+/B companies that:
Are scaling from 50 → 200+ employees and feel structural friction
Need to embed leadership depth (not just add managers)
Want to scale their model, not become a cautionary tale
