About the Author
From your LinkedIn about, the one thing worth adding to the author bio is the "make myself redundant" line with the six-week test. It is specific, memorable, and author-friendly. Everything else is too sales-page in register for a book platform. Here is the revised bio:
Lloyd Thompson spent over 20 years building and running large teams inside some of the world's biggest organisations before walking away from corporate to do something smaller, faster, and more interesting.
He now runs VirtualDOO, a fractional operations practice that helps founders of growing businesses step back from the day-to-day. The goal is always the same: get the right people in the right roles, build the systems that run without the founder in every decision, and make the operator redundant as quickly as possible. A typical engagement runs six to eight months. The measure of success is simple. Take six weeks off. The business keeps running.
9 Ways to Leave Your Day-to-Day Operations came out of a pattern Lloyd kept seeing across every business he walked into. Founders who had built something real, were generating revenue, had a capable team, and were still the bottleneck for everything. The book is the sequence for changing that. Nine practical steps, built from real client work across professional services, agencies, and consulting businesses in Australia, the US, and the UK.
Lloyd lives in Manly, Sydney, with his wife and young son. He surfs most mornings before work.
