Consulting
The other kind of help.
Twenty years of commercial judgement, brought to the problem rather than the personality. Coaching works on the person carrying the problem. This works on the problem.
Who I work with01
-
Founders and entrepreneurs
Building the thing, and running out of people who’ll tell them the truth.
-
Senior executives and the C-suite
Accountable for the outcome, working through a structure someone else designed, and short of people who will disagree with you in private.
-
Leaders building and shipping AI
Where the technology is the easy part and the operating decisions aren’t.
-
Investors and money managers
Excellent at the work, and quietly asking a larger question about their own lives. That one moves next door.
What fits02
A decision deferred three times. Strategy that doesn’t survive the numbers. An operating rhythm nobody designed. Risk, in the unglamorous sense. Succession, exit, transition.
How I work03
Short and defined. I listen to more people than you expect, then tell the person who has to act what I actually think.
A single session. A scoped piece of work, one to six months. Or a standing seat, monthly or more often.
I’d rather leave you with a decision you can defend than a document you’ll archive.
What I bring04
Capital markets, advisory, then leading operational teams regionally and globally — most recently as a senior leader at Goldman Sachs.
Risk, scale, regulated environments, and how large institutions actually decide. And the experience of leaving one life and building another.
What this isn’t05
No bench, no juniors, no methodology. Not a deck for its own sake. Not a rubber stamp.
