Simple Scales.
If everything still runs through you, growth just feels heavier. I help founders build the team and systems to step out of the day-to-day and lead as the CEO, without losing what made the company work in the first place.

Why founders trust GoodKnight Consulting
I'm Logan McKnight. I spent nearly 20 years in med-tech, starting in the operating room and ending up running an international company with teams across the U.S. and India.
I know what happens when a business outgrows its founder, because it happened to me. Every decision routed through my desk until I built the leadership team and systems that could run without me.
Now I help founders do the same: step out of the day-to-day, lead as the CEO, and build a company that doesn't need you in every room.
The founder trap
You built something real. But somewhere along the way, it learned to wait for you. Now the decisions, the escalations, the dropped balls all find their way back to your desk.
A company that only grows when you're in the room isn't a business yet. It's a job you can't quit.
Does it feel like you’re still at the center of every decision?
How we work together
A clear path from running the company to leading it. Not theory, just the work I do inside companies to make growth actually stick. I don't watch from basecamp. I climb with you.
Find the bottlenecks and dependency patterns.
Clarify ownership, priorities, and decision rights.
Move responsibility into leaders and teams.
Build the confidence and capability to lead.
Create rhythm and lasting operational maturity.
Sound Familiar?
None of this means you're failing. It means the company has outgrown the way it's being run. That's a good problem, if you fix the right thing.
You can't tell if your leadership team is the problem, or if you are
You're the smartest person in the room, and the loneliest one in it
Good initiatives launch with energy, then die because no one owns them
Your team waits for you to decide instead of deciding
You can't step away for a week without things wobbling
Every bit of growth adds weight instead of breathing room
