I help highly technical thinkers to communicate clearly and effectively to grow and scale the business faster. As well as helping fast-growing tech companies to restructure as they scale. I transition people from being at the top of their technical game into leadership roles. I improve their leadership skills around delegation, prioritisation, and communication. I help create the environment in which leadership thrives, by building systems, shaping culture, or offering guidance towards a clear vision of success. Personally, I love coaching and being a sounding board for technical leaders. I help them qualify decisions in an educated way. Because I have 20 years industry experience as an engineer and 8 years as a business owner, it means I relate to many of the challenges facing leaders in tech. I ask the difficult questions and help get things done. Starting with planning a long-term vision and with clarity. I can offer guidance and work with you on focus, organisation, systems, and processes. Challenges I often see and help clients with, are: - Levelling up strategy and planning to engage at a higher level - Managing expectations - up, down, and across - Alignment and focus within teams - Ensuring clarity by owning communication - Providing feedback to manage performance - Defining a transparent career progression framework - Leading remote cross-functional teams - Establishing a strong team culture About you: I can help you be more thoughtful and proactive rather than reactive. When you respond instead of react, you convey your message and ensure quality, stability and faster completion of projects. I always start with a strategic approach and advocate for effective delegation. A shift in focus to systems thinking means transitioning away from a technical to-do list and tactical responses. Developing your team multiplies your expertise and impact on the business to allow it to scale. It all starts with a chat.

I can even teach you how to make sourdough bread and pizza from scratch!
