Free up time to focus on the real priorities.
Project delivery is a rollercoaster for agencies. A chaotic experience full of ups and downs. Success for one client but perhaps frustration for the next. All levels of the team fighting delivery fires.
The challenges are different for every agency. Yours may excel where others are failing. An approach may have succeeded at another agency, but when you tried it, it didn’t work.
That’s where I specialise. Solving your delivery challenges and improving your project success rate. They build agency-client alignment and fostering team autonomy and productivity.

Delivery Approach Review
I focus my two decades of agency experience across your current project delivery approach. We discuss weaknesses, surface risks and define actionable insights.
Two hours with up to 5 of your team. Works best in person and when attended by different areas and levels of the business, including the delivery team.
We discuss your challenges and frustrations. I share my experiences and knowledge. Together, we gain clarity and define actions that lead to more successful project delivery, and an improved client experience.
Take action. Learn more about my Delivery Approach Review or Book a 30-minute call to discuss your situation.
Coaching Individual PMs and Delivery Managers
Working closely with an individual responsible for your delivery approach, whether Product Manager, Project Manager or Delivery Manager. I spend regular time discussing the current situation and where improvements would be most valuable.
Working together to define and implement better way of working which result in projects running more smoothly and clients responding more positively.
Often both running delivery and defining improvements to the approach can seem unachievable in a fast moving, high-pressure environment. That’s where I come in. Understanding the context then supporting incremental change to solve the trickiest problems.

Context-Aware Agile Coaching
Context first, Agile second. No two agencies are the same. My Agile Coaching engagements start by understanding:
- Your business & people
- Current approach & Agile maturity
- Priorities for improvement
I get to know you and confirm where is best to focus. Next we define and agree a plan (sometimes using an Agile Framework like Scrum). The plan might involve me a little or a lot, depending on what’s required.
Then we get to work.
