I'm Chris Monroe, founder of OPS Framework, IT leadership coach, speaker, and the architect of systems that help tech teams scale without the burnout.

​

Before I launched OPS Framework, I spent over a decade leading IT departments and teams transforming them from “worst in the company” to strategic, high-performing powerhouses. I advanced quickly in my career, not because I had all the answers, but because I embraced the intersection of change, motivation, and a growth mindset.

​

Then in 2019, everything shifted. A serious car accident and my seventh concussion, this forced me to step back and reevaluate everything.

"I created the OPS Framework for the leader I used to be. Overwhelmed, stuck, and ready for change! " — Chris Monroe

As a high-performing IT leader managing hyper-growth, Chris experienced severe

burnout. Every decision flowed through him. Every fire needed him. He was the

bottleneck drowning his own business.

I realized burnout isn't a personal failing it's a systems failure. 'I created the Operate-Plan-Scale framework for the leader I used to be: capable but overwhelmed, visionary but trapped in execution.

Through that lens, OPS Framework was born, a proven system built to help IT leaders operate with intention, plan with clarity, and scale with confidence.

​

Today, OPS Framework helps 50+ founders annually through fractional COO services, coaching, and workshops. The C.H.R.I.S. mindset method + OKR methodology has been adopted by 100+ businesses across professional services, SaaS, technology, coaching, consulting, and B2B sectors.

​

I’ve studied with leadership giants like Les Brown and The Carnegie Institute, but what truly shaped me was leading through pressure and helping others rise with me.

Transformation doesn’t start with hustle. Transformation starts with consistency!
