Philosophy
My approach to projects has developed over 20 years of working in construction and development across the world, and has been influenced by among others Flyvberg & Gardner, Bryn Bird, David Kelley, Kahneman & Tversky and Michael Hopkins.
Clarity. Why is the project being undertaken, what is the objective and what are the constraints? Everything flows from these and with clarity across the whole team incredible results follow.
Analytical. Engineering offers profound examples of how analysis can solve seemingly impossible problems. Employing this mindset to projects more broadly is extremely effective in overcoming complexity.
Design Thinking. Pioneered in the design profession and now a proven approach for innovative, successful projects in all fields. Especially when combined with….
Drawing. Intuitive, powerful and clear communication tool. Whether it’s a concept, process or thing, drawing it is a brilliant way of understanding, sharing and refining it.
