Vahab Hasiri The operator behind Consilium Dynamics
Active COO. Former scale operator. Author of The Rubicon Leader. I help SaaS founders solve the one problem they can’t solve from inside the business.
Person Behind Consilium Dynamics
I’m Vahab Hasiri. Former COO at Aron Groups, where I scaled a fintech from $5M to $19.2M ARR with 250+ employees in two years. Co-founder and COO at X Securities today, still an active operator, not a retired one.
Author of The Rubicon Leader, a book on the founder-to-operator identity transformation.
I’ve made the hires you’re about to make. I’ve fired the people you’re about to fire. I’ve sold the deals you’re about to lose. The frameworks I bring you aren’t from a slide deck I made in 2019, they’re running in a live business this Monday.
WHAT I DO IN PLAIN TERMS
Most companies at $1M–$5M ARR don’t struggle because of ambition. They struggle because the founder is now the bottleneck for every decision worth more than a thousand dollars, the strategy hasn’t caught up to where the business has grown, and the bottleneck blocking the next stage isn’t the one the founder is naming out loud.
I step in when:
- You have a vision in your head but can't translate it to next Tuesday
- You have a strategy on paper but execution drifts every week
- You have a bottleneck you've been turning over for months and can't crack
These aren’t surface problems. They’re the V-S-B stack (vision, strategy, bottlenecks), and they’re solvable in 8 weeks when worked in the right order.
THE THREE PILLARS I RUN
Vision, Strategy, Bottlenecks. Same shape every engagement, calibrated to the founder’s real destination and the real bottleneck (which is usually not the one named).
Vision (Sessions 1–2)
Diagnostic in Week 1 finds the real problem behind the named one. Session 2 forces the destination decision (scale, lifestyle, or hybrid) and produces the written 3-year vision document.
Strategy (Sessions 3–4)
Three highest-leverage moves for the next 90 days. Written execution map with milestones, owners, and a one-question decision filter for the daily noise.
Bottlenecks (Sessions 5–6)
Top 1–2 bottlenecks diagnosed to root cause (three “whys” deep). First action taken inside the engagement. 6-month accountability scorecard to keep you honest after I leave.
Systems That Can
Work Without You
True scale or true freedom, depending on which destination you choose, happens when the business no longer depends on you for every decision worth more than a thousand dollars.
By Week 8 of The Solver you’ll have:
- A written vision that names what you actually want, not what you think you should
- A 90-day strategy with milestones and a decision filter the team can use without you
- The top bottleneck named, root-caused, and with a first action taken
- A weekly review ritual and a 6-month scorecard so progress is measurable after I'm gone
- An operating cadence the team runs so decisions stop queuing at your door
The objective isn’t short-term momentum. It’s the operator’s version of you, running the business you actually want.
Become a partner
Who I Work With
- Bootstrapped or lightly-funded SaaS founders and CEOs at $1M–$5M ARR
- Adjacent service businesses such as B2B tech, fintech, professional services
- Founders past PMF with real teams and real revenue, hitting the plateau
- Operators who want hard truth, not validation
- Founders willing to be wrong about what their problem is
Who I Don't Work With
- Pre-PMF founders, the framework assumes paying customers and a real team
- Founders looking for a fractional CXO embed (That's The Operator, not The Solver)
- Anyone who wants a coach who'll tell them what they want to hear
- Founders who can't commit 4–6 hours per week to the work for 8 weeks
- Anyone who needs a retainer relationship — The Solver ends cleanly at Week 8
The Solver requires commitment to the diagnostic and the framework.
Results follow honesty. I’m not the right partner if you’re looking for validation, and I’ll tell you that on the discovery call before you write a check.
Why Choose Consilium Dynamics?
Unlike traditional consultants, I don’t deliver presentations and disappear. Unlike traditional coaches, I don’t ask you how that makes you feel. I’m the active operator inside X Securities who scaled Aron Groups from $5M to $19.2M — your engagement runs on frameworks I’m using in a live business this week.
I bring:
- Active operating role — current COO at X Securities, in the seat this Monday
- Verified scale experience — $5M to $19.2M ARR at Aron Groups, 2 years, 250+ employees
- Proprietary methodology — V-S-B framework + 7-category problem taxonomy + 4-step diagnostic
- Author of The Rubicon Leader — book on the founder-to-operator identity shift
- B2C/B2B sales since 14 — useful for SaaS founders whose sales cycle is the operating problem
For founders who want the operator’s version of advisory, and not the consultant’s.
