Working With the Best Clients and Partners
About Me
I've worked in Agile for about 12 years but my career spans well over 25. I've pretty much covered every departmental area of business and various level of leadership from line management through to C-Suite.
As a Lean Consultant my experience derives from engagements and transformations with major Fortune 500 companies and Central Government departments. I can categorically say that I have pretty much seen most things though I do get surprised from time to time and I am always learning.
I am a published author of Change Starts at the Very Top: A Transformation Guide for Leaders.
Agile Support Services
My mission is to help organisations become more effective, efficient, customer-centric, and adaptable to the modern challenges of business. I do this by coaching, mentoring, training, and facilitating all levels of the organisation, from product development teams to the C-suite.
I have successfully transformed working practices, for major global companies like BT Plc, Tesco Plc, and Vodafone Plc and have a tried and tested framework designed for longevity in Agile implementation for sustained success.
