How we’ll work together
I won’t waste your time. I only take on work where I know I can add value. Let’s start with a chat and make sure we’re a good fit.
If we are, we’ll get straight on with developing a plan to fit the challenges you’re facing, your most pressing needs and your budget.
What you won’t get from me
- A man in a suit (unless we’re meeting at court).
- A load of off-the-peg management consultancy tools. (They’re expensive and they don’t always capture the nuance and context of individual situations.)
- Someone who lands and expands for their own benefit.
- Someone who talks the talk but has never done the thing.
Instead, you can expect…
… strategic oversight with attention to detail, from someone who knows the sector inside out and really cares about the people you serve.
One to one
I provide leadership advice, troubleshooting and support – managing big things like disputes, crises or mergers – acting as a mentor, advisor, sounding board and critical friend.
Facing a crisis? I’ll be there for you 24 hours a day if that’s what you need.
Teams
I work with groups – usually boards and senior executives – to help them become self-aware and find new ways to collaborate and build a shared strategy.
Bring me a roomful of colleagues at loggerheads and I’ll show you people who haven’t yet found their common purpose.
Organisations
Send me the tangled web of your governance and I will make sense of it.
I will audit your governance, finance, quality, safety and staff or user experience to assess performance and then develop and test improvements.
Then I’ll help you develop a strategy and move your people from a place of resistance to embracing change by reconnecting with their values.
Partnership working
I deliver projects that tackle inequalities across systems and places by bringing together organisations, communities and service users to find a common purpose.
This involves unearthing data, assessing provision and unmet need and convening partners – building momentum and injecting rocket fuel where it’s needed.
