ADVISOR

Pioneer in the learning & development space Organizations and Start-Ups

As Paulo Freire wisely noted: Authentic help means that all who are involved help each other mutually, growing together in the common effort to understand the reality which they seek to transform. Clients cannot enter the struggle as objects in order to later become subjects.

I have worked with 70 organizations — including ARM, Commonwealth Bankof Australia, Dropbox, European Patent Office, Google, IAG, Logitech, Nike, PwC, State of Oregon, and Westpac.

I have designed and delivered innovative change projects in which people learned as they resolved issues which enabled them to deliver more fully on what they cared about.

This moment is your curriculum.

I partner with pioneers in people development to create new products and services.

Current projects: My work with Integrative Development is built into (1) how Ovida is transforming the advancement of skills using AI and (2) how Cantoo is revolutionizing the 360° market. My work with The Five Maturities is built into an AI coaching tool co-developed with Margaret Moore to help people determine what they most need to learn.

I am seeking opportunities to work with game changers who want to use my work to transform how people learn and develop. Click on the button below to start the conversation about how we might work together.
