I will work with you on a complex business problem, opportunity, or decision

THE GIG

Bring me one complex business problem, opportunity, or difficult decision that you are working on. Lets work together to make sense of it, consider possible courses of action, and decide what to do next.

HOW WE'LL WORK TOGETHER

1. Preparatory questions

Please complete and reflect on them before our meeting.

2. 1st consultation

We'll build a shared understanding of what is actually happening, what you've tried, and what makes the situation difficult.

3. Reflection

I'll spend a day or two thinking things through. Id encourage you to do the same. I might ask a few questions during this time.

4. 2nd consultation

We'll continue the discussion and reframe the situation. From there, well consider possible solutions, make a decision, and commit to a course of action.

WHAT THIS IS NOT

To the man with a hammer in hand, everything looks like a nail.

This is the opposite of what I do.

This is not template-driven consulting or a predetermined framework. Its not me arriving as the smartest person in the room.

I want to inquire, with you, into what matters most to you and what the situation calls for.

If I don't think I can make a useful contribution, Ill tell you.
