PROFILE
TL;DR —
People come before projects.
I wear many hats and you can give me whatever label you like but at the end of the day, I’m here to work transparently and collaboratively with good people that are interested in creating a better future for people and planet.
Below are a few points about how and who I work with.
Powered by collaboration
Whether it’s facilitating a workshop with stakeholders or guiding a lean team of experts, the underlying motivation is the same; to bring people together under a collective purpose and drive tangible results.
Visionary strategy balanced with tactical coaching
Big thinking is not valuable if you do not have the ability to communicate ideas and the tenacity to iteratively discover how to put words into action. I bring both visionary thinking and communication skills to engage stakeholders, as well as the coaching and mentoring skills that empowers people to realise this vision as a team.
Evidence based decision making
I build upon scientific methodologies and frameworks such as hypothesis-driven design to inform our products and understand the worlds they occupy. Through open and transparent learning we can build our collective confidence in order to make tough but progressive decisions.
Servant leadership
I am not interested in pushing people out of the way or pulling others to keep up. I prioritise being open, adaptive and supportive of those around me in order to empower autonomy. Through trusted partnerships and relationships I hope to individually contribute to our collective achievements.
