Navigating the gap between a "good idea" and a "defensible business" is where most growth gets lost. Most innovation fails because it lacks a strategic North Star—and in the AI era, that compass is more vital than ever.
With over two decades spent at the intersection of brand, product, and growth, I help organisations optimise for new tech eras without losing their soul. This blog is where I deconstruct the "messy middle" of innovation—from unit economics and the psychology of customer experience to the reality of venture building. Expect practical frameworks, a touch of British candour, and absolutely zero fluff.

Personas Aren't the Problem — Maintenance Is: Why Most Customer-Insight Cycles Go Stale
Personas are accurate exactly once: the day they’re built. The customer insight cycle breaks down after that, because nobody owns the job of routing new evidence back into the profile. Creation is solved. Maintenance is the part nobody’s addressing.
