Where Real Scars Meet Sharp Thinking

A doctorate-level management qualification focused on senior strategy, leadership and organisational direction. This is your assurance you’re working with a strategic partner whose thinking has been tested at the highest level.

This is the top management qualification offered by the Chartered Management Institute, designed for CEOs, directors and senior leaders responsible for complex, cross-organisational strategy. In practice, this means I’m able to quickly grasp the bigger picture of your business, cut through complexity, and help you design strategies that are not only ambitious but executable.

CMI Level 7 (Masters) in Professional Consulting

This CMI Level 7 qualification in Professional Consulting (Master’s level) isn’t just another course on my CV; it’s a rigorous, postgraduate consulting programme developed by the Chartered Management Institute in partnership with the Institute of Consulting . It’s specifically designed for practising or aspiring professional consultants who need to deliver real value on real projects for real clients.

For you, this means you’re not just hiring a “coach who consults on the side” – you’re working with a consultant who has been formally trained to operate at a senior, strategic level. I bring structured methods, proven consulting tools and a clear, ethical framework to every engagement, so you get clarity, momentum and tangible results rather than vague recommendations that go nowhere.

CMI Level 7 (Masters)  in Leadership Coaching and Mentoring

My CMI Level 7 qualification in Leadership Coaching and Mentoring (Master’s level) is a postgraduate programme designed for senior leaders who are responsible for developing and embedding coaching and mentoring across an organisation. It goes far beyond basic coaching skills and focuses on the strategic impact of coaching, mentoring policies, organisational culture and leadership capability at scale.

For you, this means you’re working with a coach and mentor who operates at a strategic, leadership level. I bring a structured, evidence‑based approach that supports you (and your senior team) to think more clearly, perform at a higher level and build a culture where coaching, feedback and development are genuinely embedded – not just talked about.

Level 7 (Masters)  in Business Accounting and Finance

My Level 7 qualification in Business Accounting and Finance is more than a credential; it is a foundation in strategic financial leadership designed for the boardroom, not just the back office.

Sitting at the same academic level as a Master’s degree, this training enables me to look beyond the spreadsheet and focus on the real-world drivers of growth, resilience, and stakeholder value.

For you, this means you’re working with a coach / consultant who effectively bridges the gap between high-level strategy and hard numbers.

I help you decode what your financials are actually saying so you can make confident, data-backed decisions on pricing and investment. My goal is to ensure your strategic plans are never just ambitious on paper, but remain viable, profitable, and sustainable in practice.

ISO 9001 Lead Auditor

As an ISO 9001 Lead Auditor, I’m trained to assess how well an organisation’s quality management system really works in practice – not just whether the paperwork is in place. Lead Auditor training focuses on planning, conducting and reporting first, second and third-party audits against ISO 9001, including how to evaluate risks, identify non-conformities, test the effectiveness of corrective actions and lead an audit team. 

This means I’m skilled at looking beneath the surface of processes to understand whether they are truly capable, consistent and aligned to customer and regulatory requirements. I know how to use evidence, data and questioning to uncover root causes rather than symptoms, and how to translate audit findings into practical, value-adding improvements.

For you, this means you’re working with someone who can bring rigorous, ISO-standard thinking to your business – helping you strengthen systems, reduce waste and risk, and embed a culture of continuous improvement so quality becomes a competitive advantage, not just a compliance exercise.
