I'm the founder of ETM, a niche organisation passionate about delivering high impact learning to help organisations to rapidly improve performance.
We help people & organisations to learn, unlearn and relearn.
We love helping people to make sense of our fast changing and complex world, and, to play a small role in supporting and developing world class leaders for the future.
Success for me is all about delivering the best 'outcomes' possible, and providing 'value' (whatever that is deemed to be in the specific context), as soon as possible. This is done by ensuring we have an appropriate mindset (beliefs) and using suitable 'Fit for Purpose' approaches to delivery, which fit the environment and the characteristics of the work being done.
I am pragmatic about supporting organisations achieve the goal of 'Business Agility'.
I have many years (over 25 years+) of international business experience working in countries such UK, Ireland, Belgium, Hong Kong, USA and Australia. As a project manager I have successfully managed a multitude of different types of projects across many different countries, the largest being a complex upgrade of a US$2bn ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) system across 17 countries in Europe.
Over the last 8 years I have worked hard on building a reputation as an exceptional course designer and workplace trainer/facilitator in project delivery practices, and, I'm a reasonably regular presenter at events & conferences.
