The Agenda Sessions

I have 30 years' experience in this type of work, thinking with leaders in giants like Cisco, PwC, HP, Gartner, and in much smaller specialist firms too.

My clients are already exceptional at what they do. Founders, directors, partners, and senior executives with the drive to make things better. And who take personal accountability for growth, change, and performance.

My practice involves creating space for these growth leaders to think before they act.

We think together on complex, high-stakes issues they’ve not experienced before. Challenges like:

— deciding a sustainable business growth ecosystem.
— choosing the best strategies for maximising commercial value.
— deploying their team's strengths, capacity and capabilities.

I bring experience, provocations, and insights that can't be found elsewhere. My style is a combination of facilitative and directive. We always work on their agenda, not mine.

Sometimes we meet once around a live issue. More often, we have regular sessions. I meet them one-to-one and with their team when appropriate. The results from our time together:

- Improved clarity and focus.
- Increased courage and confidence.
- Better business with higher commercial value.
