Why Work With Me
I know intimately well the importance and impact of harnessing thinking performance - in both the personal and professional contexts. I also know how hard it can feel, and find time, to do this, but I also know how easy it can be to do - when you know how, and when you have the right tools, environment and, sometimes, support.
I am not a thinking guru, academic, or even a qualified thinking coach - if there is such a thing? If you wanted one of these when you found your way here, my apologies, you are probably best looking elsewhere.
I am passionate about people, performance, purpose and helping all of us make the most of our incredibly powerful minds. I have been fortunate to have served a full career in the UK Armed forces, leading and working with some of the most amazing people you could ever wish to meet, all around the world.
I have worked across the public and private sectors for the last 16 years - firstly as a corporate leader and then latterly as an independent. I have spent much of my adult life leading, coaching, mentoring and facilitating, delivering change and transformation, building teams as well as delivering challenging projects, and putting into practice and developing the different services I have to offer here; and a fair part of that learning fast through my own failures.

I will work with you, your team or your organisation to see if and how I might be able to help. I’ll be honest if I don’t think I can - so you won’t waste time not getting what you need.
I think one of the most powerful things to acknowledge is ‘not knowing’. I don’t have all the answers, but this normally means I am not looking to ‘give you the answer’, but rather that I see my role in helping you to find your answers, your approach, what works best for you.
