Why Leaders Need a Professional Thinking Partner (PTP)
Having a PTP is about gaining a sounding board and a collaborator who’s not in your day-to-day circle. This role is essential for leaders who need:
→ A Safe Space: To talk through ideas, challenges, and even doubts without judgment.
→ A Fresh Perspective: With experience across industries, I bring new ways of looking at things that go beyond typical industry thinking.
→ Long-Term Resilience: Today’s world demands leaders who can adapt, pivot, and endure. Together, we’ll build strategies and mindsets that will help you thrive now and in the future.

Introduction
The PTP service is for leaders looking for a trusted partner to tackle complex challenges, gain fresh insights, and develop new ideas. Think of it as having a sounding board who’s just as invested in your journey as you are—someone to collaborate with, not just tell you what to do.
It’s a hands-on, personalized partnership. I’m here to support you through the big decisions, unexpected twists, and even the moments of self-doubt, offering an open, nonjudgmental space to explore and grow.
With a background in design thinking, innovation, business modeling, consulting, and entrepreneurship, I bring a blend of creativity, strategic insight, and real-world practicality to the table. Together, we’ll tackle challenges, refine your ideas, and create a path forward that aligns with your vision and goals.
Whether you’re looking to address a specific issue or chart a course for long-term growth, this service is designed to adapt to your unique needs and ambitions.
What to Expect
One Work Session: In a single session, we’ll get right into a pressing topic or challenge you’re facing. I bring a fresh, cross-industry perspective to help you see things differently. For example, we could use design thinking to reframe a tricky situation, or futures thinking to consider long-term possibilities. Whatever we dive into, it’s all about finding a clear way forward on the topics that matter most to you.
Ongoing Partnership: If you’re ready for a deeper dive, we’ll start with a framing session where I get to know your background, goals, and big-picture vision. Then, we’ll meet twice a month to work through whatever is on your mind. Each work session builds on the last, helping you make real progress on long-term goals, find clarity, and feel more grounded as you lead.
Over time, you’ll find:
→ Clarity: You’ll see complex issues with fresh eyes.
→ New Perspectives: We’ll explore different angles and frameworks to get unstuck.
→ Confidence: With each work session, you’ll feel more sure-footed in your choices.
→ Resilience: You’ll strengthen your ability to adapt, grow, and keep going no matter what.
