candid. thoughtful. provocative.

At b.partners I specialise in leadership.  Specifically, in helping senior leaders and executive teams increase their positive impact, materially. I provoke and facilitate dialogue that delivers an honest snapshot of current reality, and clear alignment on a desired future. I then help senior leaders and their teams move from where they are right now, to where they must go.


I partner with Founders, CEOs, and Boards over the medium to long term, helping them transform personal effectiveness and the effectiveness of their leadership teams.  I conduct diagnostics, build tailored programmes, deliver coaching interventions, design cultural reviews and deploy methods that respect each client’s unique operating context. I do
NOT deliver a one-size fits all approach.  I do NOT sell a proprietary product.  I will work with you to work out what you, and your teams need. 

 

Leaders and teams often already have most of the elements needed for success.  But sometimes, the combinations, the balance, and the personal dynamics simply don’t quite work. I am a proven catalyst for leadership excellence, for profound personal growth.

my mission

I support leaders and leadership teams to be honest.  To reflect and develop.  To create positive change at a human level, at an organisational level, and eventually, at a societal level.  Better leadership enables a better world.  It’s not a cliche - it’s a truth.

Founded in 2020, b.partners enables me to bring over 25 years of organisational experience to every client I work with. My distinct and complementary professional and academic competencies, combined with a genuine passion for being of service to people and their organisations, is what makes my approach unique.

b.partners represents my obsession for creating engaging and compassionate workplaces that are still high-performance in nature. This enables meaningful careers, and invites more leaders to show true courage through their leadership.

These are not just words – it’s my purpose – it’s why I founded b.partners.

At b.partners, leadership change is what I do. I have built my career supporting senior leaders and leadership teams understand, adapt and expand their impact. 


My approach is best articulated through the Stockdale Paradox: 
You must never confuse faith that you will prevail in the end - which you can never afford to lose - with the discipline to confront the most brutal facts of your current reality, whatever they might be.


The more senior you are, the less likely it is that people will tell you the truth of where things really stand. Why would they?  Self-interest and self-protection are powerful forces.  The other challenge is internal - the more successful you are, the less likely you are to tell yourself the truth.
Experience and success are both paradoxes in themselves.  Experience becomes a heuristic that invites you to shortcut curiosity and helpful-risk, and success is a salve for the brutal truths that you could easily avoid.

My difference is this:  I help you uncover and respond to the truths that matter - skilfully, kindly, and with total honesty. For your leadership. For your team. For your enterprise.

experience is a lot, but it’s not actually everything.

I’ve been a member of senior executive teams and boards across Australia, Asia, the United Kingdom, and beyond. Every day, I speak with founders, CEOs, divisional heads, emerging talent, the newly promoted, and the “sort it out or we’re going to fire you”. So I see a lot.


But I also have independence.  Fierce independence.  The sort of independence that comes from an acceptance that you know more about your context and your possibility than I do, but
only the truth will enable you to activate that effectively.  I hold an independence that is hard to come by in a world of politics, bonuses, pay checks and alliances. 


I am also not locked in by proprietary models.  My unique combination of commercial and leadership experience allows me to create custom strategies and solutions for your enterprise, for your leaders, for you. 
Work that fits your context. In my view, that’s the only sustainable way to do this, and the best way to embed meaningful and lasting change.
