I’m Frank, and I’m passionate about helping organisations, teams, and individuals create a simpler and more fulfilling work life. 

At home, we are independent adults with responsibilities, but once we step out the door for work, everything seems to change. At work, we often find ourselves needing to ask for permission and struggling to get things done. That’s where I come in. 

I support organisations in simplifying their organisational structures and avoiding unnecessary rules. 
My goal is to help your business remain flexible so it can quickly adapt to changes in the market. 
I believe that work should be as straightforward and empowering as our lives at home. 

I’m always up for a virtual coffee chat! If you’re interested in sharing ideas or exploring collaboration opportunities, just send me a message, and we can set up a time to connect. ☕️
