Work with me — organizations & individuals

Two doors

Which one is yours?

Both run on twelve weeks and four 3-week sprints. What changes is the size of what we're moving.

For organizations

Something important isn't moving.

A new venture. A product that won't launch. A program that's been "about to start" for two years. You know the direction — it just isn't happening. I get inside it with your team.

Organizations →

For individuals

There's somewhere you've wanted to go.

Start the company. Write the book. Become someone who can. I know the territory, and I'll guide you through it — twelve weeks together, instead of another year of getting ready.

How it feels

In the room, not on a retainer.

I work in person where I can, at a whiteboard, with the people who actually have to make it happen. No deck arrives at the end of the month in place of a conversation. You'll get direct opinions, an occasional argument, and someone who cares whether it actually gets made — not a vendor protecting a scope of work.

Fit

Who this works for — and who it doesn't.

I'd rather say no early than take on something that was never going to move. Here's the honest version.

A good fit

There's somewhere specific you want to go — even if you can't see the whole path
You'll act between our conversations, not just talk about them
You want someone in it with you — not an order-taker, not a cheerleader
You're willing to let what happens change the plan
You'll put things in front of real people before they're perfect

Not a fit

You need a detailed plan and a definition of done before anything moves
You want it done for you with no involvement — I work with people
You want a report, or a name on the website, rather than the work
The answer is already decided and you want it validated

What happens next

Three steps, no theater.

From first call to first sprint is usually about a week.

We talk

Thirty minutes. You tell me where you want to go and why it isn't happening yet. I'll mostly listen.

We agree on the direction

Not a plan, not a definition of done — a direction clear enough to take the first step. If I'm not the right person, I'll tell you.

We move

The first sprint starts the following week. No three-month discovery phase you pay for.

Not ready yet? The book, the podcast, workshops and the community are all in Resources — the easiest way to get to know how I think.

Tell me where you want to go.

Book thirty minutes. We'll figure out whether I'm the right person to go there with you.
