About this session
You've got a raise, a board meeting or a big pitch coming up. We'll go through your story, your numbers and the questions you're dreading. I've been on both sides of that table, as CEO of an AIM-listed plc and running a funding round right now. You leave with a tighter pitch, real answers to the hard questions and a plan for the room.
Your mentor
Most mentors will tell you to embrace AI. I'll show you how, because I do it every day.
Twenty years in senior leadership: VP at a FTSE 100, GM of a deep-tech startup I grew from 3 to 35 people, then CEO of an AIM-listed plc. For the last two years I've built five commercial SaaS products on my own, with Claude as my engineering team. I own the architecture, the reviews and every release. They're live, they have paying customers, and I still ship to them most days.
The best proof I can give you is what happens after we start. Three of my mentees now retain me as technical advisor and architect: a UK sports app, a Germany/UAE martech business and a US B2B professional services startup. Each one started as a mentoring conversation. Each one turned into rebuilding how the business and the product actually run.
I also spent nine years as a training manager and hold a diploma in executive coaching. I know how adults actually learn, not just what good advice sounds like.
Living with ADHD taught me early that the right systems aren't a luxury. They're how I function. That shaped everything: how I lead, how I build, how I coach.
Who this is for
Founders, senior leaders, and people about to step into a bigger role, who can see AI changing the shape of their work and want a mentor already living it rather than reading about it. I think I'm the wrong fit if you're after a first job, CV polishing or help growing a content channel.
What we'll work on
Building with AI properly. Which tools, how to structure the work so the output stays maintainable, how to get past the pitfalls that make most people quit in week two, and how to make it stick inside a real team.
Leadership under pressure. Board dynamics, funding rounds (I'm running one now), scaling teams, and the shift from doing the work to owning the outcome.
Clarity. Cutting the noise until you can see the two or three things that actually matter this quarter.
