Discrete trajectory advisory

Leaders engage me when decisions set direction for years, not quarters.


In the moment, several paths can appear equally strong. The real difference lies in what they grow into.


I come in when there are multiple intelligent options on the table and the long-term implications are not yet visible. Most leaders already feel which way they want to move. My role is to be a disciplined counterweight, testing that instinct against consequence and structure.


You know that every strategic choice sets something in motion. Some choices widen future room to move. Others quietly close it down. I help you see which is which.

What this is

A clear look at where each serious path actually leads.

This is not a program, a workshop, or project support. It is focused work around one leader and one set of decisions.

It is useful when:

  • You face several credible options, each with a strong case behind it.
  • The choice affects people, capital, and positioning well beyond the current planning horizon.
  • You are prepared to own the trade offs, but want them fully understood before you commit.

The goal is simple: a decision that still feels right when you look back from several years ahead.

What changes

After our work, the decision is no longer abstract.

The real choice is named.

  • The illusion of “equal options” falls away.
  • The future each path produces becomes visible.
  • You move with awareness of consequence, not just justification.
  • There is no framework to apply.

There is simply a clearer understanding of what you are setting in motion.

The nature of our engagement

The work is direct and contained.

We look at the decision without performance, without internal politics, without narrative protection.

  • I challenge assumptions.
  • I follow implications forward in time.
  • I make explicit what is being normalised by the choice.
  • Sometimes this takes one extended conversation.
  • Sometimes it continues over time as decisions compound.

There is no program as such. Only serious thinking around serious choice.

Who this is for

For strategic people who already carry the decision.

  1. You hold real decision power in your organisation or practice.
  2. You are used to carrying responsibility and understand that consequence is part of the role.
  3. You do not require full consensus to move.

If you are still seeking permission to decide, this work will not feel like the right fit yet.

I look at decisions through the lens of systems and time.
I focus on how decisions shape systems over time. The future is embedded in the choice. I clarify what that future becomes.

I keep a small number of active engagements at any one time. If you are considering a decision that will materially alter your direction, we can begin with a short call to see whether there is a fit.
