Sustainability Consultant & Advisor
Services
I offer bespoke support to CEOs and senior leadership teams in businesses, government and NGOs working at the frontline of sustainability transformation.
System change
When it comes to sustainability, change is not linear, many issues are connected and most decisions require trade-offs. Having spent decades working at the frontline of interconnected policy agendas, I am not afraid of complexity or uncertainty. I can help you:
-
Map systems across multiple issues
-
Identify macro trends and plan for different scenarios
-
Co-create solutions and alternatives
​
Strategy
I started my career in strategy consulting where I helped businesses all over the world to identify, develop and implement strategy. Now, 30 years later, I actually know some stuff. I help clients:
-
Build sustainability into a successful business and organisational strategies
-
Drive rapid, transformational change
-
Understand the wider context and manage systemic risk
Mentoring
For 14 years I ran an organisation, taking it from a start-up with just a couple of part time staff and some seed funding, to a global organisation with multi-year funding and operations in 9 countries. I could not have done this without help - I was fortunate to have a mentor.
He supported me to think through options and navigate complexity; he connected me to new thinking. I cultivate leadership by helping my clients:
-
Navigate uncertainty and risk
-
Identify pathways through complex relationships and situations
-
Ask the right questions
Facilitation
After many decades of working with people, movements and organisations across the economic, environmental and social spectrum, I now know what it takes to change minds. There is a science to it, and I can help you deliver a successful process by:
-
Identifying the right people, the right space, and the right questions
-
Convening conversations across different sectors, specialisms and agendas
-
Access to a network of sustainability leaders from all geographies and contexts
Green Economy
The great transition to more sustainable economic systems is so much more than wind turbines and electric cars. It requires a wholesale change of the way that we manage our economic systems. The question is how. I’ve dedicated the last 17 years aiming to answer exactly this.
I support businesses, policy makers and institutions to locate the opportunities for transformation within green economic trends and investment patterns:
-
Providing insights on what climate and green economic policies and investments will mean for your focus area or supply chain
-
Identifying opportunities for innovation and adaptation within climate policies and trends
-
Testing and evolving Green Economy strategies and policies with stakeholders

I would love to hear more about what you're working on.
