About this Event
1 Million Cups Loudoun – Business Presentation
Featuring Tammie M. Calys, Founder of Next Level Me
Wednesday, August 26 | 9:00 AM – 10:00 AM
Venture X One Loudoun
Join us as we welcome Tammie M. Calys, founder of Next Level Me, to the 1 Million Cups Loudoun stage for a conversation about organizational strategy, leadership capacity, and building stronger businesses through intentional organizational design.
About the Presenter
Tammie M. Calys brings more than 30 years of corporate leadership and enterprise transformation experience. Before founding Next Level Me, she spent over 15 years leading management consulting engagements focused on business transformation, process improvement, enterprise system implementations, and organizational growth.
Throughout her career, Tammie noticed a recurring challenge: while companies invest heavily in technology, financial systems, and strategic planning, they often overlook the human infrastructure needed to successfully execute those initiatives. This gap can lead to stalled growth, executive burnout, and failed business transformations. Inspired to solve this problem, she founded Next Level Me to help organizations identify and address the structural barriers that limit performance.
About the Business
Next Level Me partners with mid-market companies, private equity firms, and executive leadership teams to uncover organizational friction before it impacts business performance.
Using a proprietary suite of diagnostic tools—including Role Architecture Assessments, Candidate Alignment Assessments, and Executive Capacity Diagnostics—Next Level Me helps organizations evaluate leadership capacity, organizational structure, and team alignment. These data-driven insights enable businesses to make informed decisions, strengthen leadership, and create sustainable growth.
Who Tammie Is Looking to Hear From
Tammie would especially value feedback and connections from:
- Mid-market CEOs, founders, and managing directors
- Fractional CHROs and fractional talent leaders
- EOS Implementers and business coaches
- Private equity operating partners and M&A advisors
- Internal HR directors
- Executive recruiters and commercial attorneys
- Professionals who work with scaling organizations and leadership teams
Current Business Focus & Challenge
Next Level Me is currently in an active growth phase, expanding its portfolio of organizational diagnostic services while building strategic partnerships and referral networks.
Tammie is seeking feedback on two key areas:
- Identifying the most effective channels, networks, and referral partners to connect with Fractional CHROs, Private Equity Operating Partners, Internal HR Directors, and EOS Implementers who support growing organizations.
- Determining which introductory service—the Role Architecture Assessment or the Candidate Alignment Assessment—provides the strongest entry point for prospective clients before engaging in a comprehensive Executive Capacity Diagnostic.
Why Attend?
- Learn how organizational structure influences leadership effectiveness and business growth.
- Share your insights with a business focused on helping organizations scale successfully.
- Connect with entrepreneurs, business leaders, HR professionals, consultants, and investors from across the Loudoun community.
- Participate in an engaging discussion about leadership, organizational performance, and sustainable growth.
