Advisory
If there’s one thing I trust more than a plan, it’s a well-placed question.
If there’s one thing I trust more than a plan, it’s a well-placed question... asked at the right moment, with the right stakes on the table.I advise C-suite and senior leaders in transformation, tech adoption, and scale-up chaos. Not from the sidelines but in the room, at the whiteboard, in the decision. My role is to bring perspective, challenge assumptions, and help you deliver results.That’s how progress begins and how good advisory proves its value.
How you can work with me
Strategic Sounding Board
A confidential, high-trust space for structured thinking and sharp decision-making. I help leaders reflect, zoom out, pressure-test ideas, and move forward without the noise. Best for leaders carrying transformation accountability, adoption pressure, or competing priorities. What We Do:#1 Find the decision inside the complexity#2 Name trade-offs and constraints#3 Agree the next actions, and the cadence of delivery
Executive Team Partnering
A hands-on format where I work alongside the executive team over a defined period. We run focused sessions (typically weekly or biweekly), supported by light async check-ins, to turn the current agenda into clear priorities, decisions, and next steps. Best for executive teams navigating strategic shifts, adoption rollouts, or scale-up complexity. What We Do:#1 Align around what matters (not what looks good on paper).#2 Translate strategy into operating language and actionable insights.#3 Restore confidence by making progress observable.
Clarity Sprint
When nothing is wrong, but still stuck. A short, intensive format to reset focus, commit to priorities, and restart delivery. Bold decisions and clear actions. Best for leaders or teams who are struggling with uncertainty and are in need for a gentle push to deliver outcomes. What We Do:#1 Turn ideas into deadlines and ownership.#2 Build shared focus across functions.#3 Define what “good progress” looks like so people can start.
