Strategic Advisory for Capital-Driven Businesses

Strategy, capital raising, and AI-enabled execution for capital-driven leadership teams

AI Training for Corporates

Most organisations now have access to powerful AI tools such as ChatGPT and Copilot. Like Excel, these tools are widely available — but few people are ever trained to use them well. As a result, most teams operate at a basic level and capture only a fraction of their potential value.

I work with leadership teams to build practical capability in how to think, structure, and instruct AI. The focus is on persona design, prompt structure, and prompt architecture — enabling teams to move from basic usage to consistent, high-quality outputs that materially improve productivity and decision-making.

This foundational capability is essential. Without it, broader AI initiatives and agent-based automation rarely deliver their expected returns.

Typical work includes:

  • Executive and leadership AI capability sessions

  • Practical training on persona, prompt structure, and prompt architecture

  • Moving teams from basic usage to repeatable, high-quality outputs

  • Identifying high-impact AI use cases within existing workflows

  • Preparing organisations for more advanced tools and agentic AI adoption

→ Creates the operational foundation for sustainable growth

Capital Raising Advisory

Capital raises succeed or fail long before investors are approached. I advise businesses on how to prepare, position, and execute capital raises to an institutional standard.

Drawing on experience across equity, debt, and growth capital, I support management teams through the full process — from readiness and materials through to investor engagement and closing — with a focus on credibility, structure, and long-term outcomes.

Typical work includes:

  • Capital strategy and funding readiness

  • Equity and debt fundraising execution

  • Investor positioning and pitch preparation

  • Financial modelling, valuation, and deal structuring

→ Provides the fuel for expansion and strategic initiatives

Strategic Advisory

Strategic decisions shape long-term value, but execution increasingly determines whether strategy delivers. I advise founders, CEOs, and boards on high-impact decisions across growth, capital allocation, and transactions — with a clear focus on how strategy translates into execution.

Alongside traditional advisory experience from KPMG and private markets, I bring a practical understanding of how AI can be applied to improve decision quality, execution discipline, and operational leverage. This is not AI as a standalone initiative, but as a tool to strengthen strategy, governance, and delivery.

Typical work includes:

  • Growth strategy and execution planning

  • M&A advisory and transaction support

  • Valuation, financial modelling, and due diligence

  • Applying AI to improve strategic analysis and execution workflows

  • Board advisory and non-executive support

→ Ensures strategic decisions drive long-term value
