Strengthen your people system. Scale with confidence!
Growth is never just a strategy problem.
It’s a people system problem.
You can have a clear vision, strong pipeline, and ambitious plans, but if capability, culture, and ways of working can’t keep up, growth becomes heavy, slow, and emotionally expensive.
My consulting work helps you fix that.
When Growth Exposes the Cracks
As a founder, business owner, or People & Culture leader, you may recognise these patterns:
1. Capability gaps that slow everything down
You’re hiring smart people, but:
managers aren’t growing fast enough
middle layers can’t translate strategy into daily behaviour
you’re still the escalation point for too many decisions
Work gets done, but not at the level or pace your growth requires.
2. People strategy that’s reactive, not intentional
You know people are your biggest asset, but:
there’s no clear capability roadmap for where the business is going
development is ad hoc: a course here, a workshop there
high performers are burning out while underperformers stay too long
roles evolve faster than the people in them
You’re spending money on people initiatives, but not building real, compounding capability.
3. Organisational effectiveness issues that no one has time to solve
As the business grows:
meetings multiply but decisions don’t get sharper
communication breaks down between layers and functions
accountability is fuzzy, everyone’s busy, few own the outcome
conflict, avoidance, and emotional friction drain energy
On the surface, it looks like a “performance” problem.
Underneath, it’s a system problem: misaligned rhythms, unclear expectations, and inner habits that don’t match your ambitions.
If these issues aren’t addressed, you get:
growth that depends on a few exhausted heroes
stalled initiatives and inconsistent execution
avoidable people drama and turnover
a founder or senior leader who wonders, “Is it meant to be this hard?”
It doesn’t have to be.
This is where consulting with me comes in.
My Solution for Sustainable Growth
I help you build a business where strategy, people, and inner capability support each other — not fight each other.
My consulting and advisory work focuses on three core areas:
1️⃣ Capability Development
From ad hoc training to a deliberate capability system.
We identify the critical human capabilities your business needs to scale, and then design practical pathways to build them.
This can include:
leadership and management capability maps
capability frameworks for key roles and layers
development pathways (emerging leaders → middle managers → senior leaders)
integration of micro-habits and Inner-Edge practices into daily work
coaching and mentoring structures that actually lift performance
The goal: you stop “sending people on courses” and start growing the capabilities that matter.
2️⃣ People Strategy
Aligning your people decisions with where your business is going.
We translate your business strategy into a clear, grounded people strategy, so you know:
who you need (roles, skills, mindset)
how you’ll grow them (development, feedback, mentoring)
how you’ll keep them (conditions, culture, career paths)
what you’ll stop doing because it doesn’t serve the future
This is where hiring, development, performance, and wellbeing stop being separate conversations and start becoming one coherent strategy.
3️⃣ Organisational Effectiveness
Making it easier for people to do great work together.
We look at how work actually happens:
decision flows and escalation patterns
meeting rhythms and communication channels
cross-functional collaboration and handovers
accountabilities and role clarity
emotional dynamics and psychosocial risks
Then we design simple, human systems that support:
faster, cleaner decisions
fewer bottlenecks
clearer accountability
healthier, more honest conversations
reduced friction and rework
The outcome: a business that doesn’t rely on constant firefighting to function.
Why Work With Me
My clients often call me the “Chinese doctor for sustainable growth”.
You come to me with symptoms: conflict, burnout, slow execution, misalignment, good people leaving…
and I work with you at the root: the human systems and inner capabilities that create (or prevent) those problems.
I bring:
20+ years of cross-sector experience
From law to corporate leadership to organisational development and SME advisory, I’ve developed leaders and teams at all levels.Depth in inner capability
With a background in coaching psychology and my own Inner-Edge Framework, I help you work on the mental, emotional, physical and values-based drivers of behaviour, not just surface skills.Proven business outcomes
Examples of client results include:4x revenue growth in 2 years for an SME (<25 staff) after strengthening leadership capability and team rhythms.
35% reduction in psychosocial risk incidents in 6 months by embedding quality conversation practices and reshaping team habits.
40% faster ramp-up time for new managers through a targeted leadership accelerator, leading to earlier performance and engagement.
37% uplift in cross-functional collaboration scores during a challenging M&A integration, by addressing trust, clarity, and conversation quality.
Calm, honest partnership
I’m not coming in to “impose a model” and disappear. I listen deeply, see patterns you may be too close to see, and work with you to design solutions that fit your context and your people.
How We Can Work Together
Consulting and advisory engagements typically include a mix of:
Discovery and diagnostic (interviews, workshops, pattern-mapping)
Strategy design (capability, people, or organisational effectiveness focus)
Co-creation of tools, rhythms, and pathways
Leadership / founder advisory
Optional integration with training, workshops, and coaching
Each engagement is tailored, because your business, your people, and your growth stage are unique.
Is This the Right Next Step for You?
This work is a good fit if:
Your business is growing, or about to grow, and you don’t want the people side to lag behind.
You’re tired of band-aid training and want embedded capability.
You care about both performance and wellbeing, and you want systems that support both.
You’re ready to look honestly at how your current ways of working are helping or hindering sustainable growth.
If that’s you, we should talk.
