Progress is Built on People
Different minds don’t slow work down, they stop teams repeating the same mistakes. If you see something others don’t, say it. Holding back doesn’t protect the team. It protects the problem. When you speak up, you break the loop that…

Not What I Planned
Over the Christmas break I completely switched off social media. All of it. Including LinkedIn. My days were spent eating far too much cheese, making bad art, separating my office from my craft studio, and watching my tomatoes grow like…

The Bias Busting Session
Less ego, more clarity, better outcomes. You have bias. Everyone does. Not because you’re flawed, but because you’re human. Bias is a shortcut your brain uses to process information quickly, make fast decisions, and save mental energy when details are…

The Thinking Upgrade Test
Your decisions are only as good as the thinking behind them. No organisation rises above the quality of its thinking. Systems, processes, frameworks; all of it comes second. If the thinking that shaped them is outdated, biased, rushed, or narrow, then everything…
