Work with me

Start with a conversation. Not a proposal.

Three ways to work together, with prices, so you can decide before we talk. Most clients start with the audit.

How it starts

Four steps, and you can stop after any of them.

  1. 01

    A 30-minute call

    You tell me the problem you think you have. I ask questions. No slides, no pitch.

  2. 02

    The audit, two weeks

    Interviews with your leaders, a decision map and a written diagnosis.

  3. 03

    A written plan

    The three decisions to fix first, who owns each, and what it will take.

  4. 04

    The work

    A sprint, an advisory seat, or you take it from here. All three are fine.

Good fit, not a fit

Who this works for.

Good fit

  • You founded the company and it now has 50 to 300 people.
  • Everything still seems to reach your desk.
  • Your leadership meeting ends with “let’s take it offline”.
  • You have tried to fix it once already.
  • You would rather hear the uncomfortable version.

Not a fit

  • You want someone to run operations full-time. Hire a COO; I’ll help you write the role.
  • You need a strategy deck for the board by Friday.
  • You want a team of consultants on site.
  • Your company has fewer than 30 people. Read the newsletter instead; it’s free.
  • You have already decided what the answer is.

Questions

Working together.

Do you work with companies outside Europe?

Yes. About a third of my clients are in North America. Interviews and sessions are by video; I travel for the first and last day of a sprint.

Why do you publish your prices?

Because you would ask anyway, and a price on the page saves us both a call. Sprints vary with the size of the team, which is why they start ‘from’.

What if the audit finds nothing?

It has not happened yet. If it does, you get a written report saying so, and I refund half the fee.

Will you run operations for us?

No. I help you decide who should, and write the role with you. Then I step back.

Who will I work with?

Me. There is no team behind me and no junior consultant doing the interviews.
