Strategy and Advisory Services for Individuals and Organizations
As someone who generated over a billion dollars of business in a 20+ year aerospace career across 5 continents, now I teach business leaders and teams how to achieve more than they thought possible, and enjoy the process.
Hi, I’m Hanna Steplewska. As a purpose-driven Fractional COO, Strategist & Advisor, I show teams and companies how to replace constant reactive crises and information overwhelm with a repeatable, data‑driven operational rhythm that fuels revenue growth, operational clarity, high performance teams and sustainable business results.
I strategize with and coach individual leaders to help them realign with their own vision and values and those of their organization. Along the way we recreate meaning and enable fun and sustained high performance at work while regaining joy and play at home.
I am the architect of the proven Management Operating System (MOS) implementation, used successfully by companies in the Aerospace, Finance, Tech and Non-Profit sectors..

What Clients Are Saying
-
"It’s been a great pleasure working with you. I feel so blessed that you joined us this year, to say that you bring value to our mission is a vast understatement. Your work is amazing, and I can’t wait to learn more from watching you work. I look forward to another awesome year."
Founder & CEO, Aerospace
-
"In the little time we have worked together, I have to say, I am extremely impressed by your work. Not just on the outcomes of all the business work you do, but also on how you interact with me and everyone else at the company. I find myself looking to you as a model for how I should operate as a leader, now more than ever with this VP title."
VP, AI SaaS
-
“The company shared the confidential news about the contract today and how pivotal you were to getting it done! And that on top the other proposal! I just wanted to thank you for your leadership, tenacity and hard work. I look forward to catching up at the board meeting."
VC Investor
-
"I was looking for a way to improve my balance and focus. I always found the way Hanna steered the conversation to be valuable and considered. Restructuring my day has allowed me to deliver as well as fire fight. I now feel calm and in control. Working with Hanna I feel happy, relaxed, clearer in my head. Little exercises can have a big effect. The greatest outcome has been the management of my relationship with my business partner. It has allowed me to relax outside of work."
Founder & CEO, Robotics
-
“I was successfully exiting one business and starting a new position in a corporate environment. So much change in so little time was a lot to take in and I needed to recalibrate who I was all over again. After a session I always have direction and clarity. I feel calm and focused and know what I need to do next, which is very comforting. Letting some walls down has allowed me to see my life and my decisions with significantly more clarity and increased my peace of mind.”
Founder & CEO, Energy
-
"Struggling and stuckness felt lonely and frustrating. I’ve got no shortage of ideas but I can go in circles starting new projects and abandoning others when they get complicated. Hanna was able to help me see my delay tactics, the ways I question and distract myself. She showed me how to orient myself to a vision of my future self that makes me want to sing and dance. I’ve got a deadline for my book proposal that is real and about to be met. And a plan to finish my book by June, which I hadn’t thought possible until Hanna questioned my doubts."
Author & TEDx Speaker
-
"After working with Hanna I feel empowered, supported, more resilient. Despite difficult life events and now, an uncertain global future, I'm generally able to keep myself centered through practices I learned. I now have a wider range of tools, including specific journaling prompts and meditations, that work for me."
Consultant, Publishing
-
"I was feeling overwhelmed with being crazy busy and dealing with impostor syndrome. Hanna’s advice is based on science, logic and reason not just fluffy mumbo jumbo. Hanna’s stress managing tools are simple and easy to implement but very effective and portable. I can prevent the feeling of being overwhelmed getting out of control like it used to. I feel empowered. I have gained back my confidence and belief in myself."
