I’m a keynote speaker, consultant, author, toolmaker, and strategy professor at UCL.

I’ve spent over a decade researching the difference between risk and uncertainty — I’ve now broadened my scope to explore the wider range of types of not-knowing that we face.

My speaking, consulting, and writing are all aimed at helping leaders and their organizations understand uncertainty and design themselves to flourish in it.

Here’s what I’m doing now-ish.
