Board & Advisory
In Theory
A strategic advisor with a strong background in digital and non-profit. With over 25 years of experience, I have built a reputation for driving growth, fostering innovation, and guiding organizations through complex challenges.
I hold a Professional Doctorate from The University of Sunderland, Thesis: The realisation of a value driven
organisation. The digital NGO as a case study”
I am a fellow of the Royal Society of Arts and board member
for an international NGO.
In Practice
I provide strategic oversight and governance to support an organization’s mission and long-term growth.
With a focus on accountability and sustainable success, I collaborate with fellow board members and executive leadership to shape policy, monitor performance, and ensure sound decision-making.
I am committed to advancing organisational goals through the application of a thoughtful, collaborative approach to leadership and actively supports initiatives that drive impact and value for stakeholders.
Method and results-driven advisory
My approach involves the application of method to get
the most out of any meeting or intervention.
This involves taking a multi-disciplinary approach to any scenario
as organisations often have different needs where a one-size-fits-all approach won’t deliver.
By gaining a fuller understanding of what an organisation is facing a map can then be created that actively addresses threats and opportunities.
