Giving room to what matters.

No Ordinary Projects started as my personal and professional playground. It's still that. It's where I write, invest and facilitate - to find new ways to work and live together.

What I believe

That mostly, we don't need more. We need less that's in the way. That honesty is cheaper than most strategy. That a walk outside and a clear mind beats a slide deck nine times out of ten. And that play is not the opposite of serious, it's how serious gets done.

Where I come from

Fifteen years in and around companies, first inside them, then alongside them. A few hundred hours in rooms with teams. But most importantly, curious since 1986. I have a background in anthropology, a love for writing and a growing interest in regeneration: of people, of teams and of the places we depend on.

Who I work with

Independently, but certainly not alone. A small circle of valued facilitators, guides and thinkers who join when a programme asks for it.
