01 / AI readiness
Which AI use case should we back?
Assess candidate use cases against business value, data readiness, risk and ownership. Define what a pilot would need to demonstrate before wider investment.
02 / Independent advisory
Advisory & consulting
I help CEOs and leadership teams decide where to focus data, AI and technology investment and what evidence to ask for before committing.

Questions I can help you work through
02 / Trusted data
Why do teams disagree on the numbers?
Trace disputed measures to their definitions and sources. Establish who owns each measure, how changes are agreed and where issues get resolved.
03 / Transformation
What should we modernise first?
Compare investment options against the decisions and workflows they support. Sequence the work around dependencies, delivery capacity and adoption.
Working together
Start with a decision
A conversation can start with a specific issue, such as a stalled programme, competing platform options or an AI proposal awaiting approval. We can agree the question, who needs to be involved and what would make the work worthwhile.
Depending on the scope, the work could produce a readiness assessment, a set of options for a leadership decision or a roadmap with owners and measures.

Executive AI readiness checklist
Pick one decision. Tick a question when your team can point to evidence. Use the unanswered questions to agree what to resolve before the pilot.
A 90-day starting point
Days 1–30
Choose a decision and establish a baseline for its performance, ownership and bottlenecks.
Days 31–60
Assemble the evidence, put proportionate controls in place and fit the proposal into the workflow.
Days 61–90
Pilot in the operating environment. Measure actions and outcomes before deciding whether to scale.
