Authors
The writers behind this newsletter.
Author of the book Design Leadership Chronicles. Design leadership coach and advisor on design-led organisational transformation.
Leadership Coach, Designer, Author, Educator
Designer of strategic decisions, product experiences, and business growth. Led by good research.
I bring 30+ years of expertise across strategy, design, psychology, tech, and finance, helping organisations turn complexity into clarity. Passionate about leveraging AI and human-centred design to create scalable solutions for the future.
