I bring decades of experience and insight from working in the Australian Higher Eduction system.

I work with mindful intention to help you define strategy, structure, symbolism and story in the pursuit of a healthy organisational culture.

My role is to help untangle your roadblocks, to find a path through complexity and to inspire collaboration.

I bring a refreshing, no b/s lens to higher education and public sector and consulting. I've lived through all the highs and lows of working in the Higher Education sector. I viscerally understand the pressures that leaders and managers face: both academic and professional - in fact I think the two cohorts have more in common than that which separates them.

I can be your trusted sounding board and coach, help you run strategic planning retreats.

I am uniquely qualified to provide pre- and post-award advice on major collaborative research consortia and projects, having been the COO of three successful ARC Centres of Excellence.

I love to harness creative digital solutions that help to enhance meaningful collaboration and progress tracking.

I have a no-nonsense approach to light-touch but highly effective operations in research and academic environments.

Finally I have a number of trusted associates who can add specific advice on strategic communications, working with the public sector and research evaluation.

Get in touch for a chat! The first meeting is complimentary and the coffee is on me.
