Speaking & conversations
Keynotes, fireside conversations and board sessions, shaped around the audience's decisions.
01
A chief strategy officer's perspective. An enterprise can approve individually persuasive business plans without creating a coherent portfolio. I ask what the businesses contribute to one another and where the organisation has a defensible reason to invest. Discussion focus: enterprise strategy, portfolio direction, strategic partnerships, scenario planning.
02
A chief strategy officer's perspective. A set of future narratives is useful when it changes how a leadership team acts today. I look for decisions that remain sensible across conditions, commitments that depend on a specific assumption and signals that should trigger a review. Discussion focus: enterprise strategy, portfolio direction, strategic partnerships, scenario planning.
