OK. Let's get right into it.

Why? Well ...

In most situations, there isn't a silver bullet solution.

I'm not a magician. There is no magic F13 key on my keyboard,

I can't pull the answer out of a hat.

It's doing the hard work of understanding the problem, as a team, that makes for better solutions.

I don't want to preach one-true-path.

I'm not deriding those who do. They do a great job spreading ideas and starting conversations. 'Certainty' is very buyable. It allows change to happen in organisations that crave certainty. In one way, that's valuable.

It's hard to avoid if you're trying to be focused and succinct. It also helps you build a 'brand' around the framework, method etc. So I get it.

I'm just not comfortable suggesting "one size fits all" - it flies in the face of personal experience.

I don't enjoy public speaking anymore and find crowds hard.

I've done a lot of talks over the years, but since  a later in life ASD diagnosis, I've recognised how stressful I find them. Due to this, I tend to avoid submitting conference talks nowadays.

I still love doing workshops though. They feel different.

They're figuring it out together - interactive and collaborative. Sharing, not telling.

I'm a terrible procrastinator when it comes to writing

So no book any time soon! 🤣

So what do I offer and how?

I work with teams to figure out the answers. I take time to listen, learn about a business, product, market, customers - absorb that, then:

I help teams figure out:

• What they know –  how certain they are, and why.
• What they don't know – and how badly they need to know.
• How we find out and how we test our learnings.

Bringing broad experience in research, design, agile, UX, product and strategy I help teams improve:

• Design thinking, research and prototyping
• Cross functional communication
• Design, UX & SD
• Lean and Agile practices
• Business and product strategy
