About
Certified Enterprise Coach & Certified Scrum Trainer
As a Certified Enterprise Coach and Certified Scrum Trainer, I have extensive experience spearheading large-scale digital transformations, Agile adoptions, and DevOps change programs. My mission is to support clients in delivering world-class solutions through organisational redesign, effective leadership coaching, and building agile capabilities. When I’m not in the office, you might find me developing property on a building site, braving the chilly waters of a Welsh lake, or soaring in the skies working towards my Private Pilot’s Licence. My journey as a seasoned professional has taken me across various industries and regions globally. From Telecoms to Banking and Government to Retail, I’ve encountered the common challenges businesses face in their agility journey. My passion lies in helping clients navigate these challenges, working intimately with their teams and their systems to foster trust, create connected teams, and deliver products that meet and exceed customer expectations. With my extensive experience and deep understanding of business complexities, I can elevate your business to new heights, whether you’re tackling a specific challenge or aiming to enhance overall performance. My approach to each client is unique. I’ve seen the silos in fast-paced media companies and the intricate complexities in extensive finance and regulated institutions. My experience as a change veteran allows me to give compelling and profoundly engaging insight into creating high-performing teams and organisations. I thrive on building cross-functional teams, focusing on innovative solutions and generating consistent value. My empathy and willingness to engage in challenging conversations have been vital in navigating the complexities of large, regulated organisations with legacy technology. My journey is filled with stories that radiate infectious energy and practical, real-world experience, emphasising the power of team and business agility. No matter your industry, from risk-averse to fast-paced environments, I'm here to guide you if you’re looking to boost your agility or advance your leadership journey.
