Executive Education
More than 15 years of executive teaching across three institutional homes — Emory, Georgetown, and Michigan — for more than 30 client organizations in more than 20 countries. Every custom engagement begins with structured discovery; no generic curricula.
“I bring original empirical research on competitive strategy, human capital, and organizational equity into every executive classroom.”
Statement · Narrative · Evaluation
An invariant three-part architecture with client-specific content. The centre of gravity is the back half — implementation, execution, and evaluation — where senior teams most often locate their unmet need.
Objective, scope, advantage, trade-off
The Opposite Test, as a diagnostic for real strategic specificity.
If we [actions]… then [outcomes]
Every assumption named and testable before execution begins.
Reading feedback as evidence
Signposts and signals set in advance; execution quality separated from strategy effectiveness; pivot, persist, or abandon.
Competitive strategy — formulation, execution, evaluation · Equity analytics — diagnosing disparities and evidence-based fairness · HR strategy at CHRO level · Ethical leadership · AI and data strategy · Strategic entrepreneurship · Sustainability.
