About

Hi, I’m Richard—a strategic product leader, coach, and systems thinker who helps product managers grow into platform architects, innovation catalysts, and confident decision-makers.

Over the last decade, I’ve worked across four continents—from launching Deloitte’s AI innovation lab to building the Sonic analytics platform at NavVis. My roles have spanned product design, data science, strategy, and infrastructure product management. I specialize in turning complex systems into clear, actionable roadmaps.

If you're a product leader navigating ambiguity, building internal platforms, or stepping into a Head of Product role, I’ve been there. I coach emerging executives, scale product thinking across orgs, and design coaching systems used by PMs worldwide.

You’ll get structure, story, and strategy in every session—with rituals, templates, and real-time synthesis to keep you moving.

Ask me about:

Product strategy, platform roadmaps, and team rituals
Designing internal tools, data products, or innovation functions
Career pivots, executive narrative design, and leading with clarity
Analytics architecture, metric taxonomies, and stakeholder alignment
Balancing performance, parenting, and creative legacy

Let’s sharpen your story and scale your impact. Start with a message or book an intro session—I’d love to support your next chapter.

Richard has been a fantastic mentor - each session I've come away with at least a dozen great ideas for improving my projects and for exploring new product discovery techniques. He's super quick to answer any random questions I might have during the week, and he's super friendly and easygoing on all our calls. Would highly recommend.

Richard helped me a lot to understand my wants in terms of my career. We established a dimension in which I am happy to move forward and created a clear and right plan for me! The best thing about Richard is his will to help his mentees. Our communication was relaxed and productive, I did not feel any pressure from him, only an interest in my progress and emotional state.
