What is Proxideo Partners?

Proxideo Partners is a boutique strategy advisory firm founded by Kevin Carl, former EVP and Global CIO at Radisson Hotel Group. We advise boards and C-suites on AI strategy, enterprise transformation, security and risk, and executive advisory — with the senior partner doing the work directly.

What services does Proxideo Partners offer?

Proxideo Partners offers four core advisory services: AI Strategy & Governance, Enterprise Transformation Advisory, Security & Risk Orientation, and Executive Advisory. All engagements are led directly by senior partners — no junior staff handoffs.

ETRIS℠ (Enterprise Transformation Readiness Intelligence Suite) is a set of structured executive diagnostics built by Proxideo Partners. It gives organizations an honest baseline assessment of their readiness for AI and transformation investment — measuring leadership alignment, data readiness, AI maturity, and organizational capacity for change. Available at getETRIS.com.

Kevin Carl is the founder and Managing Partner of Proxideo Partners. He served as EVP and Global CIO at Radisson Hotel Group and as Global Managing Director at Accenture. With 27 years of experience inside and alongside complex global organizations, he advises boards and C-suites on technology, transformation, and strategic decision-making.

About the Firm

Built for the decisions
that actually matter.

Proxideo Partners is a boutique strategy advisory firm founded on a single premise: that the most consequential decisions an organization makes — transformation investments, AI adoption, leadership transitions, and value-creation mandates — deserve advisors who have lived inside those same decisions.

We serve senior executives, boards, and private equity portfolios navigating large-scale change. Our work combines rigorous analytical frameworks with practitioner experience across 20+ enterprise transformation programs in travel & hospitality, professional services, and technology-enabled businesses.

We do not sell retainers we cannot fill. We do not staff engagements with junior talent. When you engage Proxideo Partners, you work directly with senior advisors who have held the seats you're navigating.

Core advisory practices

What We Do

Four practice areas.
One standard of work.

Transformation Advisory

We help organizations navigate large-scale operational, technology, and organizational change programs. From diagnostic assessment through execution governance, we bring clarity to complex programs that have stalled, fragmented, or lost leadership alignment. Our work is built on 20+ enterprise transformations across multiple sectors.

AI Strategy

Artificial intelligence and agentic AI are rewriting competitive landscapes faster than most organizations can govern. We help boards and C-suites develop investment-grade AI strategy — covering use case prioritization, governance frameworks, vendor and build decisions, workforce readiness, and risk mitigation.

Interim Executive

When an organization faces a leadership gap — through transition, crisis, or the need for specialist capacity — we provide experienced interim C-suite leadership. Whether as interim CIO, CDO, or Chief Transformation Officer, our principals step into operating roles and deliver immediate, measurable stabilization and forward momentum.

M&A / Integration

Mergers, acquisitions, and divestitures create extraordinary disruption — to systems, people, culture, and operations. We advise on pre-deal operational due diligence, technology and organizational readiness assessment, integration planning, and post-close execution. We have led M&A integration programs across multiple sectors and ownership structures.

Leadership

The person doing the work
is the person on the phone.
