MY Services

Scaling a business means building strong teams, and putting the right support around them as they grow.
That’s where I come in.

I offer three ways to work with me:

  • People solutions - hands-on support to design and deliver the people initiatives that help your business scale and perform better

  • Tactical training - practical and interactive training for early-career managers to build the core skills they need to lead well

  • Hands-on coaching - a blend of mentoring and leadership support to help managers make better decisions, deliver faster, and grow with confidence.

Each are no-fluff, outcome-focused, and designed to cut to the chase, quickly.

1. PEOPLE SOLUTIONS

When you need EXTRA HANDS TO DESIGN AND DELIVER THE PEOPLE WORK THAT WILL HELP YOUR BUSINESS SCALE.

Scaling isn’t just about hiring more people. It’s about extending capability beyond you and your direct reports - so teams at every level can lead, perform, and make good decisions in line with your values as the business grows.

I work with founders, exec teams, and people leaders to:

  • Partner on key people initiatives from design through to delivery

  • Improve how you attract, assess, and hire the right people

  • Strengthen performance management so it drives clarity and accountability

  • Build learning and development approaches that grow real capability

  • Support wellbeing in a way that’s practical and sustainable

  • Make remote or hybrid working effective in practice

I can work alongside your people team, partner directly with your leadership team, or flex in as extra support where it’s needed most. Either way, I’m hands-on and focused on getting things done.

Who it’s for:

  • Fast-growth companies that need to strengthen their people foundations

  • People teams or leaders who need experienced support to move things forward.

2. TACTICAL TRAINING FOR EARLY-CAREER MANAGERS

Two-part tactical training

  • Hiring - how to identify what you need, run a sharp process, assess candidates properly, and make good hiring decisions.

  • Leading - how to work out your style, problem solve, run great meetings, give feedback, speak with clarity and confidence, design rituals, keep track of things, handle the hard stuff, build trust…and more

WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT?

  • Real-world, battle-tested tools, not just frameworks designed by management consultants

  • Immediate application - no “come back to it later” content

  • Delivered by someone who’s led teams in high-pressure, high-growth environments

  • A focus on how to do things - with lots of demonstrating and role playing (and laughing, because learning should be fun)

I don’t just deliver the training and disappear - I take the time to get to know your business, and tailor the content to your context.

That’s also why I don’t run public cohorts. Training works best when managers learn together in the context of their own business - building shared language, trust, and better ways of working.

It’s a strong retention lever, but more importantly, it’s the capability layer your business needs in order to scale.

3. HANDS-ON COACHING

NOT ALL COACHING IS CREATED EQUAL.

Traditional coaching is great for helping people reflect and reach their own conclusions - but sometimes that’s not what’s needed. Sometimes a manager needs direction. Someone who’s been there before, can spot the pitfalls ahead, and can say, “Here’s what works -do this.”

That’s where I come in.

I combine the best parts of coaching and mentoring with the pragmatism of an experienced operator. I work alongside leaders - particularly first-time managers and those stepping into a new phase of leadership - to help them:

  • Set up effective ways of working within their team

  • Develop and engage team members

  • Build core leadership skills (communication, problem-solving, change management etc.)

  • Plan and deliver strategic pieces of work

  • Handle difficult conversations or performance issues

  • Make smart, timely decisions under pressure

I don’t just listen - I advise, guide, challenge, and hold people to account. I’ll roll up my sleeves when needed and help leaders work through real situations, not hypothetical ones.

The benefit? Senior leaders don’t have to hover, but they can be confident their managers are getting the right support, challenge, and direction to succeed.

It’s targeted, practical, and designed to accelerate growth for the individual and for the business.

WHY WORK WITH ME?

I’ve built and led teams in fast-growth companies, government, and everything in between, and I know what it takes to make people initiatives actually land.

I don’t just turn up with a deck. I get close to the work, understand your context, and focus on what will genuinely make a difference for your business and your managers.

My style is practical, no-nonsense, and straight-talking - with a bit of humour thrown in. I move fast, cut through the noise, and help teams focus on what matters.

The result?
Stronger managers. Better performance. A business that’s set up to scale.
