A figure looks toward light through a cave opening

I draw on a range of frameworks — always in service of the work, never as an end in themselves. What follows is a map of the thinking and methods I return to most often.

Leadership Circle Profile
A powerful 360° assessment mapping the relationship between reactive tendencies and creative leadership capacities. It reveals how inner beliefs drive outer behaviour — and where the greatest leverage for growth lies.
Immunity to Change
Developed by Kegan and Lahey at Harvard, this approach surfaces the hidden commitments and big assumptions that keep us stuck — even when we genuinely want to change.
Purpose & Values Work
Clarity about what you stand for is not a luxury — it is the foundation from which aligned, courageous decisions flow. I facilitate work that goes beyond the wall poster.
Adaptive Leadership
Drawing on Heifetz and Linsky, adaptive leadership distinguishes technical problems from adaptive challenges — those requiring shifts in values, beliefs, and ways of working.
Adult Development Theory
Rooted in the work of Kegan, Cook-Greuter, and Torbert, this theory maps how the complexity of human meaning-making grows across a lifetime.
Trauma-Informed Facilitation & Coaching
Workplaces are human systems — which means they carry the full weight of human experience, including its wounds. This approach creates conditions for deeper honesty.
Both/And Thinking
Polarities are not problems to solve but tensions to manage. Drawing on Barry Johnson's Polarity Management, I help leaders navigate the inherent paradoxes of organisational life.
Making Great Choices — Roger Martin
Strategy is a set of integrated choices. I help leaders and organisations clarify the choices they are actually making — at every level.
