About IAS

Turning people and processes from problems into problem solvers.

IAS Business Coaching & Consulting is a Pittsburgh firm that helps family-owned businesses build operational trust, so owners can reclaim their time and grow without burning out.

Doogie Levine

Founder & Fractional COO

I work with owners of family and growing businesses as a fractional COO and coach. Before starting IAS, I spent more than ten years in management and executive leadership.

I work with owners of family and growing businesses as a fractional COO and coach. Before starting IAS, I spent more than ten years in management and executive leadership. I ran department-level operations at the American Hebrew Academy and started a summer camp for the Boulder Jewish Community Center.

IAS started in a parking lot. A friend asked me to help his buddy launch a nonprofit, The Assisted Goals Foundation. Through that work I met business owners, and I kept hearing the same thing: their real problems were process problems.

What I enjoy most is the aha moment, when an owner sees how to fix a process for good.

How we work

Build trust in the operation:

You can only step back when you trust the systems and people to run without you. That’s the goal of every engagement.

Grow problem solvers:

We coach your leaders to fix problems themselves instead of bringing every one to you.

Stand behind the work:

Fractional COO clients get a 90-day money-back guarantee.

Our Partners

Some engagements call for more hands or a specialist. These are the people and firms we bring in.
