I work with founders, investors, and boards when something critical is stuck, and the wrong move is expensive.
- Founders facing a strategic blockage that's costing time or opportunity
- Investors navigating major transitions or inflection points
- Boards requiring clarity before material decisions
This is not for ongoing advisory, consulting, or implementation work.
I enter situations where the core problem is unclear, stakes are real, and delay has cost. My role is to diagnose the constraint, whether commercial, structural, or human and reduce complexity to 1-2 viable paths forward.
The engagement centres on one clear recommendation and the first decisive action needed to implement it. Once that decision is made and action is taken, we're done.
This is intervention, not planning. The focus is unlocking what's stuck, not building what comes next.
Engagements are time-boxed at 2-3 weeks, outcome-focused around one decision plus first implementation step. No delivery tails, open retainers, or assumption of ongoing involvement.
Additional work after engagement completion can be discussed separately if needed.
- Ongoing consulting or advisory relationships
- Programme delivery or implementation support
- Technology builds, sprints, or capability development
- Exploratory work without clear decision boundaries
For execution support, I'm happy to recommend specialists who focus on implementation.
This is paid strategic intervention work. After an initial conversation, I'll outline scope, timeframe, and fixed fee assuming mutual fit.
If the timing isn't right or the problem doesn't match this format, we won't proceed. No complications.
The first discussion is straightforward: we'll determine fit between your situation and this type of engagement.
If you're facing a strategic decision where the wrong choice is expensive and the current approach isn't working, let's talk.
