Here's the deal: right now, you are the bottleneck. Every important decision waits on you. That's what we fix. Prometheus is the decision engine that finds the one thing choking your growth and puts it on screen in the first call. Then we install the system that solves it.
The stuff nobody says out loudYou're not the only one.
You're not the only one.
We see this every week.

The team waits for your signal before moving a decision.
03
Revenue is growing, your calendar too, your margin is not.
04
You hired the director; you're still doing their job.

You sleep with the company inside. Weekends too.

The 5-Minute Diagnostic
Which founder are you, really?
There are seven founder archetypes. Answer a few honest questions and I'll send you the exact playbook for yours — nobody else's.
7Show me my archetypeQuiz (5 min)No call. No pitch.Just your guide, straight to your inbox.
Working harder won't fix this.
A system will.
Twelve months from todayThe same business.
The same business.
A year from now.
Your team moves decisions without you. Every week. The conversations that eat your afternoons today don't happen anymore — the system settled them before they ever hit your desk.
Revenue's up. Margin too. Not because you worked harder. Because you stopped being the single point everything runs through.
This isn't motivation. It's not a coach pushing you. It's the mechanics of your business, rewired.
The diagnosis. Live.The decisions that matter live inside one head.
The decisions that matter live inside one head.
Yours.
Look, the first mistake isn't strategy. It's architecture. You've got eight critical processes, and every one of them ends at the same node. You.
Prometheus draws that picture on screen, in the first call. It isn't a report. It's your business seen from above, with the constraint flagged in red.
Don't take my word for it. Watch it happen on screen.

Five phases.
One deliverable: Your Atlas 360.
This is what you experience first, live on screen. It's the door into Prometheus: a protocol that closes the diagnosis in a single week and hands you the written plan for the next ninety days.

A principle, not a slogan
The constraint is not managed.
It is eliminated.
What's actually holding you backSomething's got you stuck.
Something's got you stuck.
It's almost always one of these six.
Decision-making
It all still runs through you. The team executes when you say go and stops the second you look away.
Team
You've got good people who aren't performing. Or you've got the wrong people for the level you're at right now.
New models & markets
The current engine is capped. There's a second revenue line waiting, you just haven't designed it yet.
Marketing & Sales
It leans on your personal presence. Or on channels that don't scale without torching your margin.
Operations
The sales promise doesn't hold up in delivery. There are leaks between what you sell and what actually runs.
Finance
Growth is eating more cash than it generates. The structure can't support the scale.
We're not selling you the full bundle.
We attack the one that's actually costing you sleep, and only that one.

You don't pick your level. The first conversation reveals it.
How it works
From live diagnosis to installed system.
We take a limited number of mandates per year. All work is under retainer, four-month minimum. PROMETHEUS carries the weight; the calls are held by a head that's seen a thousand of these.
01
Calibration
One call. Your business on screen. The dominant constraint, flagged. No cost. No pitch. No commitment.
02
Atlas 360
Five phases. A written deliverable with your 90-day game profile and the system we're about to install.
03
Retainer
Four-month minimum engagement. Prometheus runs underneath. You decide less and you decide better.
What you buy is not a service
You invest in judgment.
And the system that sustains it when you are not there.
Wilhelm Michael · Founder
Who's behind this
30 years. The same pattern, over and over.
Wilhelm Michael
Founder · IBGSOver thirty years in the rooms where decisions actually get made. More than a thousand projects walked through from the inside. Founders at $1M and CEOs at $20M. Family businesses, PE-backed, corporates. US - Europe - LATAM.
Prometheus is what happens when you distill that pattern down: the same constraint shows up over and over, wearing different faces.
The system finds it in minutes. The head that built it in seconds.

What you're actually wondering
The questions you don't ask on the call.
No. A coach pushes you to do the same things with more energy. Prometheus rewires the mechanics so you don't have to do them at all.
It is. Like the other thousand. That's exactly why Atlas starts at Origin — your real context, not a generic case study.
The diagnosis: first call. The system starts taking load off you by week six. Margin curve turns inside the quarter.
Yes. The calibration is free and no-commitment. If you don't see value on that call, there's no next step. That's the deal.
Who this is for
This isn't for everyone. By design.
This is for you if
- · You're doing $1M–$20M and you're still the node everything runs through.
- · If you're at $500K–$1M with a team, product in market, and a decision that keeps getting stuck, you fit too.
- · You've got a team, but the important calls keep bouncing back to your desk.
- · You want a system not a pep talk.
- · You're willing to see the real constraint, even if it stings.
This is not for you if
- · You're shopping for a consultant to validate what you already decided.
- · You're under $500k and don't have a team yet.
- · You need day-to-day operational execution.
- · You're not willing to commit to a four-month minimum.
The cost of doing nothing
One more year of the same thing.
The bottleneck stays right where it is. Decisions keep laddering up to you. Margin flattens or slips — not because of the market, because of the architecture.
You hire another VP. Try another tool. Sign up for another program. Each one moves a piece and leaves the main link untouched.
Twelve months later, same conversation. Just with less energy to have it.
