Who This Work Is For
Matt works with leadership teams at key moments of change - scaling challenges, market shifts, new leadership, or when a current strategy has run its course.
Many of his clients need a new strategic plan, with varying runways. Some of his clients are organisations dealing with strategic overload, recurring debates that don't get resolved, or teams pulling in different directions. Many are growing fast and need to refocus. Others are facing levels of complexity and disruption that their old strategy tools can't handle anymore.
Matt's facilitation is best suited to leadership teams who want to think clearly together and take ownership of their next chapter without relying on canned models or a consultant to write their strategy for them.
Matt’s Approach
Matt doesn't come in with a predetermined answer. He shows up to listen carefully, ask the right questions, and guide the team toward clarity that lasts.
His role is to help leaders think at their best together. He facilitates the conversation, rather than directing it, creating space for insight, challenge, and forward movement.
You can expect
- Calm, structured environment that encourages clear thinking
- Creative tension that's productive, not personal
- Learning environment that builds strategic muscle by working on real problems
- Clear distinction between operational matters and strategic opportunities
- A strategic plan that balances bold vision with realistic implementation
If your team is ready to think clearly and move forward with purpose, I’d love to help.
