Coaching, mentoring & training
Beyond delivery, I help sponsors, project managers and teams get better at what they do, on the job, not just in the classroom.
Coaching
Personalised and ongoing, on your live projects. We work through real plans, risks and meetings: guided reflection, honest feedback and better ways to communicate, prioritise and decide. The aim: sharper leadership and more consistent delivery against scope, time and cost.
Mentoring
A longer-term relationship to grow judgement and career. I share what I've seen work across real projects: navigating organisational politics, building stakeholder relationships, choosing roles and certifications, and avoiding the common delivery pitfalls. A confidential space to reflect and plan the next step.
Training
Structured learning of the concepts, tools and skills to plan, run and close projects: scope, time, cost, risk, communication and stakeholders. General capability-building for teams, plus exam preparation for APM, PMP or PRINCE2, whichever your organisation uses. APMP-qualified since 2008.
Change job family design
Setting up change as a proper career path in your business: a job family with defined roles, levels and progression for your change and project people, from junior analyst to portfolio and transformation director. Clear role profiles, the skills expected at each level and what it takes to move up, built into your HR framework and linked to recognised qualifications. People can see how to grow; you can recruit, develop and keep them. For when you are building or reshaping the function.
