I speak from the inside out — not from a stage removed from the operational reality I’m describing.
Speaking and training engagements cover commercial leadership, building inside organisations, entrepreneurship and intrapreneurship, go-to-market strategy, and the practical distance between what management theory says and what experienced operators actually do.
My talks are built on what I’m living — currently running global commercial operations at one of the world’s largest technology companies, across three continents — combined with two decades of building, founding, and advising across European and global markets. The perspective is direct, honest, and grounded in operational reality.
