Agile—but make it authentic
Agile. Transformation. Liberating Structures. Are these just buzz words to you? Tired phrases that you’ve heard thrown around but have never truly connected with. Or perhaps you were sold a concept that never truly made good on its promises. But here’s the thing: liberation and transformation can only ever happen when the person who’s driving your Agile approach, truly believes in its value..
It’s why I don’t just “teach” Agile, I live an breath it. I’ve seen how, when approached with passion and conviction and implemented in a proactive, sustainable way, Agile frameworks truly can revolutionise your business.
If you’ve been burned by Agile in the past, you’re certainly not alone. But I take great pride in working with my clients to breath life into tired, rigid working practices and instil a truly Agile mindset that brings about tangible, meaningful, and lasting results.
Agile done right
Agility is so much more than …
Effective multinational working environments
The early stages of any project are a crucial time to evaluate working processes and quickly gather feedback on scope and approach, in order to decide whether to continue or change approach.
Structural issues
Pre-empting potential points of failure is a valuable part of any working process. Problem-solving provides an opportunity to streamline and innovate.
Merging teams & cultures
If something isn’t working at any stage of the process, agile intervention saves time and resource, acknowledging that pivoting from one approach to another may well be a better course of action.
Growing pains
Fostering a working culture in which people feel empowered to speak up and share their ideas is essential. With many teams and organisations moving towards remote, virtual working, dynamic and proactive communication within and across teams is more important than ever.

Sometimes it’s crystal clear what challenges you’re facing. You might be staring a problem right in the eye, sizing it up, eager to start breaking it down, but unsure of where to start.

Either way, I’m here to help. I work together with my clients to identify and interrogate the challenges you’re up against, helping to create bespoke solutions and bring about lasting results.

FAQs

I work with individuals, business owners and team leaders to help them develop their professional skills, and overcome challenges within their organisation. I offer one-off coaching sessions or longer-term coaching solutions, advising on areas for improvement and refinement. My support is based on the scale of your requirements, but is offered in one of two formats:
One-to-one coaching sessions: these are best suited to individuals looking to upskill, and business owners seeking general advice and support. Each session lasts for one hour, and can be booked as standalone meetings, or as an intensive block of ten sessions at a time.
Medium to long term consultancy: By working with you in close collaboration over a longer period of time, I’m able to define and interrogate the intrinsic problems your business is facing, before outlining the solution and helping you achieve effective, lasting results.
Following our kick-off conversation, I’ll send you a detailed proposal, outlining how I think I can best support you.
