WORK HISTORY
Co-founder Director @Rebel Hive
Specialists in uncovering and mediating the friction between people, process and purpose, to ensure transformation land and are adopted to their full, ROI potential.We focus on the often-unowned space between teams, where strategy meets delivery, tools meet people, handovers are necessary but friction has quietly built. This is where misalignment, duplication and stalled progress most often occur, where strategies and programmes drift off course, particularly during data, AI and transformation initiatives.Our work supports organisations to:uncover and address friction between teams and functions strengthen collaboration, shared understanding and decision-making build connection and confidence to question / challenge improve communication and the foundations of good working relationship consciously design people into change and delivery help data, AI and transformation efforts land in day-to-day reality collectively problem-solve and move forward, not just talk about it improve the cultural and behavioural conditions that enable progress become more efficient and increase productivity through waste reduction (time, silos, rework, ineffective meetings)Rebel Hive combines systems thinking, psychology and lived organisational experience, testing ideas in real environments and working alongside leaders and teams to create practical, sustainable, lasting change, with the people, processes and tools already in place.
