My way of working is to keep things simple and maintain a clarity of vision and purpose. You don’t always need to dive to the bottom of the ocean to find the right solution. With a clear sense of strategic direction, creativity backed with data and hands-on practical delivery, I help business by identifying and developing strategy, scenario planning, business modelling, supporting change and leading or advising on operational delivery.

Barely 20 minutes’ walk from my home office, I discovered this Bluebell wood during the early dark days of the Covid-19 lockdown, while taking my daily exercise. I have known the area for many years, or thought I did, but I never knew this wood was so close at hand, nor that it yields a carpet of Bluebells in the Spring. I had walked up a steep hill and was rewarded by the uplifting sight of the Bluebells. Different elements of nature had combined to create the scene; the blue of the Bluebells, the green of spring leaves on the trees, the dappled sunlight.

I was struck by the apparent simplicity and continuity of nature to inspire joy in challenging times.
