Executive Advisory
A confidential thinking partnership for the moments that shape your company.
When you’re scaling, acquiring, raising capital or preparing for an exit, the complexity of your role expands dramatically. Decisions carry more weight. The pace accelerates. The scrutiny increases. And the margin for error narrows.
UK & global • Confidential • By enquiry • Founder/CEO, COO, MD, Exec Team
The Executive Advisory is devoted entirely to your agenda. I help you strengthen judgement, sharpen communication, prepare for intense scrutiny and lead confidently through the uncertainty that comes with major organisational change.
This is not operational consulting. It’s senior-level advisory designed to help you make the right calls when they matter most.
Private space to think clearly. No performance. No posturing. Just real decisions, in real time.
We focus on judgement, risk, narrative, and leadership signals — not operational delivery.
Built for inflection points: scale, capital, scrutiny, acquisition, and exit.
Who this is for
Founders, CEOs and senior executives who are carrying complexity — and want a trusted partner who can challenge thinking, sharpen priorities and strengthen executive presence when the room gets serious.
Good fit if you recognise this
- You’re making decisions faster than you can properly stress-test them.
- You need to align people without over-explaining or over-promising.
- Scrutiny is increasing — investors, board, market, team, competitors.
- You want sharper judgement, not another dashboard.
Three advisory tracks
Choose the track that matches the pressure you’re under. If you’re unsure, we’ll route you based on your enquiry.
Strategic Growth Advisory
Scale + M&AFor leaders scaling their organisation or evaluating acquisitions.
- Twice-monthly advisory sessions
- M&A evaluation + leadership readiness
- Team structure + scaling design
- Decision support under ambiguity
- Communication guidance during change
- Priority async access for urgent calls
Capital Advisory Partnership
Raise + InvestorFor founders preparing to raise growth capital or manage investors.
- Investor narrative refinement
- Pitch + communication development
- Support during negotiations
- Leadership prep for scrutiny
- Board + governance alignment
- Twice-monthly sessions + async support
Exit Leadership Advisory
Exit + SuccessionFor founders preparing for sale, succession or liquidity events.
- Preparation for acquirer engagement
- Internal + external communication plan
- Decision support during negotiations
- Succession + stability planning
- Scenario planning for transitions
- Two 90-min sessions + event access
Note: These tracks are designed for direct clients. If you’re an intermediary, agency, or broker, this is unlikely to be the right route.
How we’ll work
The goal is simple: improve the quality of your judgement when pressure is high — and make sure your leadership signals match the strategy you’re executing.
Working rhythm
- Structured sessions with a clear decision agenda
- Preparation prompts to remove “catch-up” time
- Direct, usable outputs: narrative, options, risks, next moves
- Async channel for urgent calls when timing matters
You’ll leave each session with a clearer call, cleaner language, and a tighter next step.
What this is (and isn’t)
This is a senior advisory relationship: judgement, strategy, narrative, leadership under pressure. It is not operational consulting, implementation, or a “do the work for you” engagement.
Confidentiality
This work is designed to be private. We operate with discretion. If you require a formal NDA, that can be arranged.
Time sensitivity
If you’re in a live process (raise, acquisition, exit), we can compress sessions and increase touchpoints when needed.
Investment
Advisory is priced based on complexity, time sensitivity, and the level of access required. If you share the context in your enquiry, I’ll respond with the most appropriate structure.

- Who else is in the room (board, investors, partners)
- What a “good outcome” looks like
