Alex Moyies

The "Weird Al" Yankovic of Sales!

I’ve always had an old-school streak. I’m the kind of person who starts a new idea with pen and paper, listens to Nat King Cole on repeat, and thinks business works best when people speak to each other like… well, people.

... And being people-centric means respecting the most valuable resource anyone has, their time.

Time is the one thing we can’t earn back, and yet it’s the resource most easily wasted. Meetings that should have been emails. Reports that take hours to compile but seconds to go out of date. Projects slowed by chasing information that should be at our fingertips.

"Time is what we want most, but what we use worst." ~ William Penn

Maybe that’s why I’m drawn to helping organisations run smoother, smarter, and with less noise.
Because in today’s world, it’s not about more systems, more spreadsheets, and more meetings. It’s about clarity.

I’ve seen first-hand how easily complexity creeps in: projects overrun because information lives in too many places, budgets slip because the numbers don’t match, and teams work hard but pull in different directions.

Ops and Finance leaders carry the weight of untangling it all, often without the time, clarity, or breathing space to step back and see the bigger picture.

I believe there’s a better way: one source of truth, fewer moving parts, and more time for the work that actually moves the needle.

That’s where conversations start. Real ones. Human ones. The kind where we talk less about “systems” and more about the outcomes they should deliver.

Also… I’m a big fan of dad jokes. I don’t have kids yet to groan at them, so if we work together, consider yourself warned.

Already lived through a change of guard at the Chels! 

Meet Noah Abbott 💙

First lesson in life: wear the badge, trust the process, expect change.

I suggested his full name be
Noah “Carefree-wherever-you-may-be-we-are-the-famous-CFC” Abbott

My wife vetoed. Sensibly.

First workout as a dad.

Was it my finest workout? No.
Did I want to be there? Not particularly.
Would I rather be at home cuddling my son? You betcha.

But I still went.

Partly because I knew I’d feel better for it.
And partly because it felt important to start finding a new rhythm while the stakes are still low. While…

I’m on paternity leave.
He’s just over a week old.
He sleeps (relatively) well.
He’s not yet crawling around causing chaos or testing boundaries.

This is the calmest this chapter will be.

It’s so easy to delay putting foundations in place, whether that’s personal routines, or the way our teams actually work, until things feel “busy enough” or “broken enough” to justify it.

But by then, you’re not designing rhythm.
You’re firefighting.

The best systems, habits, and workflows aren’t built in crisis.
They’re built early, when there’s just enough space to think clearly, and enough foresight to know complexity is coming.

What foundations are you putting in place now that future-you (or your team) will be grateful for when things get busier?
