Advisory, fractional
and fixed-scope.
Each one links to its own page with scope, outcomes and how to start.
The Leadership
Fractional and embedded. Someone to actually own the function.
Three to six months embedded with you. I run the function and leave a team behind that can keep it running. A working team and a working system.
The Kickstart
A fixed-scope reset for stalled or pre-launch programmes.
Five to ten days to get the team reading the same brief, settle the open questions and reset a programme that's stopped moving. You leave with a plan the team has actually signed up to.
The Partnership
Principal-in-residence for organisations whose work keeps evolving.
Ongoing advisory at the pace you need, focused on the calls you can't park. A senior operator beside you, not another deck.
The Briefing
Briefings that get a team agreeing on what they're actually arguing about.
Focused sessions on a single data, systems or operations question. The team leaves with common ground and a better set of next steps.
The Delivery Diagnosis
Fixed-scope, independent review of your systems and how they're run.
Fixed-price look at systems, data and delivery, with a plain-language report in five business days. No vendor agenda.
The Data Audit
Fixed-scope, independent audit of the data your business runs on.
What you hold, where it lives, who owns it, whether you can trust it. A plain-language report and a clear plan for what to fix first.
Office Hours
90 minutes · £150 · For Founders, business & Leaders with a specific data, systems or transformation decision.
Bring a single decision: a stalled programme, a system choice, a migration call, a reporting or data question, an operating model question, or a board question on systems and data. Pre-read, recorded session, written follow-up.
There's a dedicated
founder track.
Fractional AI & data leadership, 1-2-1 mentorship, a strategy sprint or implementation support. Senior thinking at the right stage, without a full-time hire.
Words from the room.
A handful of notes from leaders, founders and chairs I've worked alongside.
Barbs walked into a programme that had been stuck for nine months and had us all reading off the same page inside a fortnight. The plan we left with was the one we actually ran.
She tells you what she thinks. No fluff, no vendor agenda. Our board got a read on our data we could finally act on, and a short list of fixes we could start on Monday.
Having Barbs in the room changed how we made the call. She knew the context from month two and saved us from at least one expensive mistake on the systems side.
