✨️ Team Innovation: Mind-Blowing Innovation Takes a Team!

The most powerful innovation is rarely spontaneous. It's generated through intentional collaboration, analysis, and team work.

Whether you’re an executive refining strategy, an IT or pharmaceutical sales professional, or a transportation planner, impact is rarely a solo effort. 

It relies on the teams executives build and support.

Every breakthrough requires brainstorming, rigorous analysis, planning, and flawless execution. It's never chaos dressed up and disguised as “innovation.”

Collaboration by a multidisciplinary team fuels innovation.

"The friction generated by diverse teams can ignite innovative solutions, turning potential conflicts into creative opportunities. When individuals from different backgrounds and with varied perspectives come together, their differing viewpoints can lead to creative abrasion...” 

... and breakthroughs.

SOURCE: Forbes 

I guide executive teams through a structured, approach using a suite of tools to foster innovation.

I have observed that, when teams break out of the firefighting mode and pause to reflect and strategize they create unforgettable results.

◼️What pre-execution work has been missing on your team?

◼️ How do you create an aligned, prepared, and empowered team to facilitate execution?

The final "wow factor" is only possible because of the invisible teamwork that created it.

After two decades of an international corporate career in Oil & Gas, I hold a strong belief that profitability & investability are the most important considerations for every operational decision and activity. Creating a compelling financial narrative for potential investors is paramount, yet is often not prioritised until the twelfth hour.

"Knowledge is Empowerment"

I co-founded The Biz Lab suite of digital tools to make it super-easy to understand what investors are looking for in the numbers and what this means for your business - effectively helping founders strike a balance between selling the idea and credible projection.

The suite incorporates our proprietary Kwik Look tool - a simple yet powerful online cash flow evaluation tool which helps early-stage founders make informed decisions by understanding their potential cash flow, key value drivers, risks, mitigation strategies & potential value of equity when negotiating with investors
