Maya J. Irizarry, MBA
Maya has managed operations and risk across roofing job sites, healthcare organizations and corporate boardrooms. She built Solutions By Maya around one observation from that work: when execution stalls, leaders usually look at people first, and the cause is usually the design they work inside.
Her practice combines multi-science leadership diagnostics with hands-on operating experience, so recommendations hold up in the field, not only in the boardroom.

What kinds of companies do you work with?
Most clients have 150 to 1,000+ employees, including private equity portfolio companies, construction and roofing firms, healthcare services and professional services. Growing founder-led firms and trades join through group programs and workshops.
What is the first step?
Take the 4-minute Execution Scorecard or book a 30-minute Strategy Session. Most engagements then start with a Leadership Team Diagnostic, which measures the leadership team before anything is redesigned.
How is this different from an operating system like EOS?
Operating systems give teams meetings and scorecards. We measure whether the people, roles and decision rights underneath can carry them, using behavioral, motivational, emotional intelligence, competency, stress and engagement data.
Do you work in Canada?
Yes. Diagnostics and planning work run virtually across the United States and Canada, with on-site sessions by arrangement.
