Selected client work
New market entry
I mapped the market, its participants and the forces shaping their behaviour, then identified the routes to market most likely to succeed.
Alternative growth strategy
Client interviews and data analysis revealed a different group of customers nearly four times as likely to buy. I then set out the changes needed to reach them.
Strategy capability
After a strategy refresh, I created a tailored blueprint covering roles, responsibilities, process, governance and tools.
Client perspectives
“Chris is a very practical strategist: development of strategy is a process, grounded in analysis, and its outputs are actionable.”
Paul NathanManaging Director, Strategic Development at RPMI
“His methodical approach creates compelling and robust recommendations. A pleasure to work with and would do so again tomorrow.”
Gary ThrowerHUB Group Commercial Director at Just plc
“Chris brought the team along with the thinking, continuing to give them ownership and not feel ‘done-to’.”

About Chris
I do my best work with complex, changing and ambiguous problems. I combine structured analysis with strong stakeholder engagement so leadership teams can make difficult choices and get behind the result.
My experience spans financial services, startups and multinational organisations, from corporate and product strategy to transformation and target operating models. I work across disciplines to connect the dots and build practical, holistic solutions.
Where useful, the work can be supported by StratNav, the collaborative strategy platform I created to help teams develop, execute and keep evolving their strategy.
