A Pragmatic Approach to Enterprise AI

Bridging the gap between human ingenuity and the power of AI systems.

The greatest challenge in AI is not technical; it is human. True transformation occurs with the intersection of innovative, powerful systems and the uncontainable spark of human ingenuity.

My work is dedicated to bridging that gap – balancing innovation with human control to ensure technology serves its ultimate purpose: to augment and elevate our own capabilities.

My career has been a focused progression from hands-on technology with neural networks to leading global change programmes and, ultimately, to shaping the international standards that govern the future of AI.

Guidance from the Frontier

My work at the frontier of AI isn’t abstract concepts; it’s about providing you with foresight.

Because I help shape global standards and advise on AGI safety where the next generation of AI is being created, I have a clear view of where this technology is heading.

This allows me to deliver pragmatic advice for today that is future-proof for tomorrow, helping you avoid costly missteps and seize opportunities your competitors won’t see coming. You get a map of the road ahead, applied to your immediate challenges.

Beyond the Silos

A Unified Framework for Enterprise AI

Successful AI transformation is not just a technical, strategic, people or governance challenge; it is all four at once. Most advisors operate from a single silo, offering a partial solution. My approach is different. It is built on a unified framework that integrates the four pillars essential for success, based on over 15 years of delivering high-stakes transformation for global organisations.

Strategic Clarity

Moving AI from a theoretical concept to a core driver of business value, developing practical strategies that have a material impact on your P&L and strategic positioning.

Proof Point: Informed by experience on share-price-affecting regulatory and transformation projects.

Auditable Governance

Building the trust and frameworks necessary for responsible innovation by implementing practical, auditable systems, not theoretical debate.

Proof Point: As a contributor to foundational IEEE global standards on AI governance, my work is grounded in world-leading best practice.

Security & Safety Assurance

Ensuring your AI is robust, secure, and fundamentally safe. My focus is on providing the assurance needed to deploy with confidence.

Proof Point: Experience ranges from early work with neural networks to current advisory roles shaping AI Safety at the frontier of AGI development.

Organisational Adoption

An AI strategy is only as good as an organisation’s ability to adopt it. I lead the human side of technical transformation, ensuring your investment results in lasting capability.

Proof Point: Proven track record of building high-performing teams and leading change for major global organisations.
