About me
Chip Gallent is an accomplished executive coach and business leader with over 30 years of experience in operations, technology strategy, and corporate transformation. As a Certified Entrepreneur Coach at Petra Coach, he specializes in guiding mid-market businesses through strategic planning and accountability using the Scaling Up framework. His coaching philosophy is built around the idea that companies must behave like the organizations they aspire to become—long before their revenue reflects that growth. He often encounters businesses that are stuck in patterns that limit their evolution, and he helps them break through by instilling new behaviors and structures. Since earning his Scaling Up Coaching certification in 2018, Chip has helped companies across multiple industries, with his member roster generating over $1.5 billion in combined revenue in 2022.
Before joining Petra, Chip held multiple C-level roles, leading high-impact operational and digital transformations. As Chief Operating Officer at the Barbershop Harmony Society, he spearheaded a major technology overhaul that modernized IT systems, streamlined operations, and improved efficiency—cutting order cycle times by 70% and boosting productivity by 35%. His leadership was instrumental in reshaping the company culture, resulting in multiple “Best Place to Work” and “Top Workplace” awards. Previously, as COO of Atiba Software, he led strategic digital initiatives that optimized eCommerce platforms, resulting in significant revenue growth and enhanced customer experiences.
Earlier in his career, Chip successfully scaled GameZnFlix from a struggling startup to a multimillion-dollar company, growing revenue from $250,000 to nearly $5 million in three years. He expanded the company’s distribution network from two to nine fulfillment centers and secured a nationwide partnership with Circuit City, solidifying its market position. His entrepreneurial background includes founding and leading Fourthturn Collective, where he developed and executed digital strategies for over 50 clients. His diverse leadership experience across technology, retail, and media sectors underscores his ability to drive growth, operational excellence, and cultural transformation. -
