Let’s jam.
Every engagement is different, but how I work stays consistent: collaborative, practical, evidence-led, and always in service of progress.
Whether I’m designing strategy, facilitating a team, or embedding in delivery, my approach is shaped by a few core principles and practices.
My principles
-
We don’t need new, we need better. By focusing on simplifying what we already have and leveraging what already works, we can reduce complexity and live more sustainably.
-
“People don’t resist change. They resist being changed.” - Peter Senge
Change by force doesn’t work. By understanding people’s intrinsic motivations, we can design compelling products and platforms for change. -
Complex problems cannot be solved by a lone genius. By working together and leveraging our diversity, we become greater than the sum of our parts.
-
Nothing happens in isolation. By adopting a systems lens and seeing the interdependencies in the world around us, we can practice more considered and sustainable design.
How I engage
Flexible roles
I can jump in as a strategic advisor, facilitator, embedded team member, or coach – depending on what the work needs.
Working style
I’m open, fast-moving, and low-fuss. I collaborate in shared documents, show thinking early, and keep stakeholders close to the work so we don’t waste time guessing.
What I’m not
Glossy report designer. Sycophant. Speaker of consultant jargon. Responsibility-shirker. If that’s what you need, then we won’t gel.
