About The Pifer Group

An operator who has built, led, and grown.

The Pifer Group is an operating advisory for growing companies where the work gets delivered by people — and it gets less consistent the bigger you get.

Alison brings 25 years of executive leadership to every engagement — 22 of them at one healthcare staffing company, where she went from recruiter to executive and equity partner as the business grew past $1.5B in enterprise value.

That experience shaped a practical point of view: growth doesn't break because leaders lack ambition. It breaks when the operating model can't keep up with the complexity of the work.

Today, she brings that perspective to leaders who need a clearer path from strategy to execution.
