About

Charleen Fassino

Brought in when growth outpaces operations and performance starts to break.

Charleen Fassino builds the operating systems growing companies need to scale. She works across manufacturing, distribution, and service environments to align leadership, improve execution, and remove constraints that limit growth.

Her work spans process design, operating model development, and systems implementation. She has led large-scale initiatives that improved efficiency, strengthened accountability, and enabled more predictable performance.

She is brought in when growth outpaces operations. She is known for quickly diagnosing issues, structuring clear paths forward, and driving execution without unnecessary complexity.

I don't come in with a playbook. I figure out where things are breaking, fix what matters, and make sure it sticks.
