Advocating for Change

I am a “transition advocate” for innovation, ecosystems, and sustainability

specifically focusing on the industrial internet of things (IIoT) and energy systems that are radically changing our world

  • Transformational insights are seen at the front end of our transitions that we are all undertaking, these observations are providing the “fuel” and underpin my supportive advisory & mentoring services to a client. This dynamic environment nurtures my understanding of what is evolving, and what impact and growth opportunities this has for a business to explore and exploit, by taking the innovators perspective into the assessment of the need of a clients energy and industrial transition.
  • My primary role is advising and coaching within these areas. The principal focuses then is to support and build internal capacity, competencies, and capabilities to undertake any transformation journey.
  • I break my business out into dedicated focal topics into “big transforming” points of impact, applying understanding and insights that are in my mind complementary, synergistic or clarifying new emerging intersections, for growth potential that has value-adding impact and business model change.
  • The combination of innovation within ecosystem thinking and the design approach has arrived, capitalizing on the value points of digitalisation combined with technology and human ingenuity; both in the Industrial IoT world and finding a growing place and pace in the Energy Transition, each is having, in my view, a very different combination effect for value creation and business impact.

My Innovation intent has been central to this period in consulting, mentoring, coaching and advising business entities, start-ups, not-for-profit and government agencies. This intent has progressively ‘funnelled down’ into recognizing the value of ecosystems as the business design for innovation in the future; to thrive and deliver more significant value creation, especially in the Energy Transition underway.

I run a specialized advisor and mentoring business called Agility Innovation; it has an intensity of focus on its clients’ needs and always looking to contribute to your own specific journey.

I work as a transition advocate for innovation, ecosystems, within IIoT, and the energy system as my points of focus. I relate content to context to give greater knowledge and build the transition narratives we are all undergoing. I have been investing my time in growing my understanding, expertise, and thinking over these “core” topics. My Innovation intent has been central to this for twenty years. This has progressively ‘funnelled down’ into recognizing the value of ecosystems as the business design for innovation to thrive and deliver more significant value creation in the Energy Transition that is underway.
