High-consequence decisions require exceptional judgement.
I advise founders, owners and investors making decisions where the consequences are measured in millions or billions of dollars.
If something is going wrong in one of our businesses and we cannot work out where it is, Nathan is the person I call. If he can’t find and solve it, no one can.

I shorten the time between uncertainty and clarity.
Patterns I've seen
Every billion-dollar business eventually becomes a people problem.
Technology rarely fails. Incentives do.
Growth doesn't create problems. It exposes them.
Trust compounds faster than capital.
Markets change slowly. Then suddenly.
Trusted by People Making Important Decisions
My work is often confidential. Where clients have given permission, I’ve included a selection of their reflections. Other engagements remain private.
If something is going wrong in one of our businesses and we cannot work out where it is, Nathan is the person I call. If he can’t find and solve it, no one can.
Over the years I’ve worked with thousands of consultants, coaches and advisors. Nathan is one of only three people I’ve seen consistently produce exceptional results.
I hired Nathan because I wanted to build a successful business. What gives me confidence is knowing that when things become difficult, he’s able to solve problems that very few people can.
Working with Nathan, it’s like he can see around corners.
Nathan is the smartest guy I have ever met.
The people I work with don’t hire me because they need more information. They hire me because they need judgement where the cost of being wrong is enormous.
Engagements
I work with a small number of founders, owners and investors at any one time. Engagements are tailored to the complexity of the mandate and typically begin with an introductory conversation.
Every engagement is different. Some involve ongoing advisory relationships, others focus on a specific decision, transaction or period of change.
I accept a limited number of advisory engagements each year. Most begin through referrals or direct introductions.
