Real strategy and innovation aren’t about 100-page slide decks and sounding smart. They’re about making bold decisions with clarity, confidence, and speed, while helping others do the same. I’m a strategy & innovation leader who’s spent the last 15 years turning ideas into valuable businesses and bold visions into measurable growth. With $1B+ in attributed enterprise value, I’ve worked across growth stages in startups, SMBs, and Fortune 500/Global 1000 companies (Intel, Bayer, Mastercard, Johnson & Johnson, Medtronic) and across industries (tech, hardware, insurance, pharma, healthcare, finance, construction, agriculture, consumer goods, retail). I’ve led smart, cross-functional teams in designing new business models, launching new products and ventures, and driving real market growth. My expertise spans Business Model Innovation, Value Proposition Design, GTM Strategy, Lean Startup, Blue Ocean Strategy, Playing to Win, Ecosystem Design, SWOT, Rapid Prototyping, Agile. I’m skilled in Strategy Facilitation, Executive Coaching, Executive Communication, Cross-functional Leadership. My leadership style is collaborative, pragmatic, and relentless. I’m drawn to the messy middle where creative thinkers connect dots, solve bold problems, and move fast without breaking what matters. I think big, go deep, and execute fast. I ask the hard questions, bring clarity and confidence to chaos, and push smart teams to deliver meaningful work that moves the needle, all while building the muscle to repeat that success. Some measurable outcomes of my work include: - Training 1,000+ professionals across 100+ teams to test assumptions, de-risk early-stage ideas, and align around what is and isn’t worth building. - Leading strategy and innovation programs at Intel, training 38 teams across 4 divisions, accelerating concept validation from 18 to 3 months, and training 250+ professionals. My frameworks and processes were adopted enterprise-wide through a train-the-trainer program. - Up-skilling 20+ global teams at Bayer, resulting in funded pilots, product launches, and internal adoption of repeatable frameworks. - Coaching 40+ SMB CEOs/owners, driving outcomes like 4× revenue growth, 10× profit improvement, $1M+ year-one revenues, and 4 successful exits. I’m ready to join a mid-to-large organization as a Senior Manager or Director of Corporate Strategy, Business Strategy, or Innovation to help lead strategic growth, shape innovation agendas, drive transformation, and deliver measurable outcomes.
