Mandating AI Will Fail
While most teams stay on the well-traveled path, a select few venture into new territory. I've been working with organizations where only a handful of people have left familiar workflows behind.

Let’s Talk Hiring - Leader to Leader
Hiring today is harder than it should be. Between clunky platforms, disconnected talent teams, and keyword-driven filters, great candidates are slipping through the cracks - while hiring managers are left frustrated and under-resourced.

AI Needs Us - for Now
AI isn’t taking your job, not yet. What it is coming for are the repetitive, ambiguous tasks that slow teams down and burn people out. For now, for most of us, the question isn’t about replacement, it’s about leadership. Can you dream what’s possible, make tough decisions, and guide AI as part of your team? That’s where opportunity lies. Not in prompts. And not in holding onto the way things were.
A New Chapter. The New Model.
The agency model is shifting. Budgets are tighter, teams are leaner, and expectations haven’t dropped an inch.

Just executive-caliber thought, embedded partnership, and outcomes that shine.
