Summary

His work centres on programmes that have gone red, services organisations growing faster than their operating model, governance that has stopped producing decisions, and AI in delivery that can be checked.

Operating-model literacy Turns a strategy into capacity plans, utilisation targets, governance and unit economics a team can run.
Customer recovery Rebuilds trust with executive sponsors by reporting evidence on a regular cadence and owning the follow-up.
AI in delivery Treats AI as an operating-model decision about capacity, review and economics, owned by the delivery executive.
