The XIR difference
When things feel tangled, stuck or ready for a shift, I work from the inside to help teams move forward.
As an Expert in Residence, I step in where I’m most useful - hands-on, trusted and focused on moving things forward.
Most of my work falls into three areas & I often work across more than one.
Clarity Where It’s Cloudy
I help leaders and teams make sense of complexity and move forward with clarity. I work inside your existing structure, building trust quickly and staying focused on what matters most.
Strategic Narrative
Clarify what you stand for and shape a narrative that reflects your purpose, guides decisions and aligns your people.
Shaping Strategy
Turn big-picture thinking into practical direction. I help connect purpose to decisions and support leaders to move from vision to action.
Getting Things Moving
When trust is low, roles have shifted, or progress has slowed, I work alongside people to realign and re-energise. My focus is on rebuilding connection, resetting behaviours and making culture real.
Team Alignment
Help teams regain rhythm and trust - especially after restructure, conflict or rapid growth. The result is clearer communication and more cohesive leadership.
Culture in Practice
Bring values off the wall and into daily behaviour. I support teams to live their purpose in meetings, on site and in decision-making.
Order from Complexity
Complex work often crosses teams, functions and decision layers. I bring structure to keep things moving, whether that’s shaping rollouts, coordinating across roles or helping teams follow through.
Execution Support
Help make the plan real. I guide delivery, shape the work and bring structure where it’s needed most. This brings pace, focus and accountability.
Getting Unstuck
Support teams to follow through, especially when momentum fades or complexity slows things down. I help remove roadblocks so teams can keep moving.
The XIR Advantage
Some challenges cut across teams, layers and priorities. As an XIR, I step into complex situations and work from the inside. I connect people, ideas and action to help organisations move forward with clarity and momentum.
Cross-Cutting Problems
I work where strategy, people and delivery overlap. This is the messy middle that often needs extra focus and coordination.
Embedded, Not External
I operate within your existing structure, building trust fast and helping your team create change that lasts.
