Consulting Services
I've been a Management Consultant for most of my career, working all over the world advising on change management, transformation, outsourcing and technology.
I now focus on a few specific areas, including robotic process automation, AI, legal services and disruptive sourcing.
Strategic Advice
I'm working with a number of firms as a strategic advisor. Some are focused around new technologies such as Robotics and AI (two of which have been named as Gartner Cool Vendors).
Others are in established sectors, such as legal, that are facing huge disruption to their business models.
All are young, ambitious firms trying to do things differently.
If that sounds like you, then perhaps we should talk?
Conference and event speaking
I am a regular speaker at conferences and company events, covering disruptive technologies including AI and RPA.
You can see some videos of me speaking on the Videos page, and see which public events I will be at on the Events page.
If you would like to discuss me speaking at one of your events, please get in touch through the Contacts page.
Academic Lecturing
I occasionally lecture post-graduate university students on a range of subjects including business strategy, outsourcing, robotics and artificial intelligence.
I've recently taught students at Loughborough University as part of their MBA course.
Pimp My Powerpoint
I feel this is a personal mission to rid the world of bad presentations. Again and again I have to witness painful and meaningless presentations that could, with a little imagination and structure, be brilliant.
Pimp My Powerpoint is a range of services to bring excellence and meaning to important presentations, from the initial white boarding to the finished product.
The Sheen Resistance
I let my creative juices flow at the weekend when I can be found DJing as one half of the Sheen Resistance, fighting the world of mediocrity in South West London using the power of disco.
We organise and run our own gigs across London and do occasional private parties. If you want to strut that funky stuff, then do come along to our next gig.

Video: AI in Insurance
In March I spoke at InstechAI, a specialist conference that focuses on the use of technology in the insurance sector. In my talk I looked specifically at the benefits and risks that artificial intelligence (AI) could bring to the industry. The organisers, Club2020, also did a video interview with
Guest Appearance on DLA Piper’s TechLaw Podcast

The Naivety of AI – Read an Extract from The Executive Guide to Artificial Intelligence
My friends at Disruption Magazine have published an extract from my book, The Executive Guide to Artificial Intelligence, on their site. The piece discusses the curious question of the inherent naivety of artificial intelligence – the idea that, although AI can, for example, seemingly recognise pictures of dogs,
The Executive Guide to Artificial Intelligence
I’m thrilled to say that my book, The Executive Guide to Artificial Intelligence, has been published by Palgrave MacMillan.
The book takes a pragmatic and hype-free approach to explaining artificial intelligence and how it can be utilised by businesses today. At the core of the book is a framework
