I see my role as an inspiration for what's possible, a provider of insights into what, how, why, when and with whom, and a catalyst for the right sort of change that lasts.
Background includes:
- Four years as Marketing Director at Round, a strategy consultancy with an award-winning set of planning, decision support and tracking tools

- Launched and chaired the CRM International Consortium and the Association of Publishing Agencies
Road cyclist with a badge that says, 'achieved L'Etape du Tour in 2006 and La Marmotte in 2007 AND 2008 with a Brevet D'Or'. And almost 2009 (a broken collarbone on way my down a hairpin bend from Glandon put paid to that!). Proud parent of three. Adoring husband of the long-suffering Tory.
Being a catalyst for breakthroughs. Innovating. Inspiring. Creating. Managing. Planning. Shaping. Delivering. Selling. And grinding my bike up mountains in spite of it all.
