An experienced organisation and management development specialist. My background includes teaching to post graduate level, research and corporate business life. I have held a number of posts in organisation development and management development in both the public and private sector.   

I  have managed a number of start-up training organisations in both the private and public sector. I have trained, consulted and researched in the field of organisation and management development for 20 years. This includes significant time with large organisations moving from a traditional mechanistic culture to a more customer focused, team working culture.
