As the Founder and Managing Partner of Mindgroup, I specialize in guiding private equity-backed companies through complex operational transformations. My approach transcends traditional consulting; I immerse myself in an organization’s core, aligning strategy with culture to cultivate an environment where leadership and innovation coalesce and thrive. Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of driving operational success across various portfolios, including those within Bregal and Partners Group. I have led transformations that resulted in tangible outcomes such as 38% EBITDA savings and 67% reduction in resolution times at Compart. While these numbers are significant, it’s the lasting changes in mindset and culture that resonate most deeply with me. During the global pause of COVID, I found the space to reassess how I lead. It became clear that sustainable transformation doesn’t come from strategy alone, it comes from understanding how deeply it’s tied to culture and human potential. Since then, this perspective has shaped my work: focused not just on delivering results, but on creating change that lasts and makes sense for the people inside the system. I believe in the transformative power of human potential. My leadership philosophy is rooted in empathy, intentional growth, and a nuanced understanding of organizational dynamics through the lens of neuroscience. This foundation led to the creation of Mindgroup’s proprietary frameworks, including the Resistance Framework and Flow Cycle, which help organizations navigate complexity, reduce friction, and optimize decision-making. These tools are designed to align people, processes, and culture, unlocking higher levels of performance and fostering a unified force for change. As a humanitarian, I am committed to the belief that business can drive both financial success and positive social impact. Just as nature restores the mind, I aim to create environments where transformation is both human and enduring, aligning with how we naturally think, work, and grow.
