Me in Three

I am dedicated to changing the world of support for CEOs of small-to-medium sized and fast-moving businesses. When I was sat in that seat, I experienced an increasing sense of void of support. In 2002 I took the leap from the corporate world to fill that void. I couldn't find the book I wanted to read, so I wrote it myself.
The nature of the challenge has changed, becoming much more like a dynamic journey on a shifting landscape, testing our organizational agility like never before. I love helping CEOs, executives and their teams be more in the driving seat of their organizational agility, as a facilitator (with Sherpa Alliance) and as a Chair of roundtable peer groups (with Vistage International), also writing and speaking on the same topic.
My passion is agility and helping people cross the agility gap to become everyday agile leaders developing an agility advantage. No matter what obstacles, hurdles and barriers we face, I believe there is always a way through if we remain agile enough to find it.
