Your design thinking is excellent. How is your business thinking?

Design leaders are trained to solve problems. What they’re not trained to do is discover the problems the rest of the organization cares about. Empathy and delight are not a priority when the conversation is about revenue targets, funding rounds, or the roles AI just made redundant.

Nobody with budget authority knows why design matters if you don’t make it matter.

I help design leaders fix that. Not by abandoning what makes design powerful, but by learning to connect it to the questions the business is already asking.

Coaching

AI is reordering every assumption about who creates value in an organization. I will help you navigate the organizational dynamics, build the business acumen, and develop the leadership range to expand design's strategic influence before someone else defines design's value for you.

Speaking

Learn how to increase your market share, improve customer satisfaction, and establish competitive advantages. My talks explore the full spectrum of design leadership and the transformative impact of GenAI, inspiring bold thinking and meaningful change.

Advising

I have co-founded a half a dozen start-ups, and helped nine others achieve success. I have been fortunate to work with some of best industry leaders, Bill Gates, Hasso Plattner, and many more. Learn how I can can help you make your idea into a viable business.
