Welcome

Strategic Solutions provides expertise to help you bring your vision into sharper focus, create the evidence to back your decisions, and organize for successful delivery of your strategic goals.

You know what you want to achieve but sometimes you need specialised extra resource to ensure you reach your objectives. With my research skills and over 20 years in high level policy and strategy development, I have the experience and expertise to help you. Whether you need to step back to look at the bigger picture; in depth research and analysis of evidence; strategic evaluation of what you are doing and how you could improve; or a review of your structure and processes to develop and deliver your policies, I will work with you to ensure success.

For me information about me you can download my CV here, I work in collaboration with the Ideas Mine, and colleagues such as Dr Barbara Brayshay (download CV) and Jonathan Welsh (download CV) when delivering large scale projects.

My Speciality

My forté is in bringing together people and perspectives to conceive in depth analyses and produce workable solutions. I quickly develop excellent working relationships built on trust, as people respond positively to my personal integrity. I am an expert at analysing complex information, quickly getting to the heart of an issue to focus on and resolve problems.

Enterprise for disadvantaged communities

I have become a passionate proponent of the role self-employment can play in helping those in disadvantaged circumstances. My recent strategic review of Bradford’s enterprise programme for disabled people (click for report) is an example of my work in this area.

Economic development/ Regeneration

Enterprise is now recognised as an important element of the economic development package for regeneration programmes. I am currently working with East of England Development Agency to improve the enterprise strand of their economic regeneration programme, concentrating on strategic development and shared learning for partners.

Gender Equality/ Diversity Issues

For many years, I have been studying diversity issues in the organizations for which I worked, and for my PhD I studied gender equality issues in depth. Diversity in enterprise policy and programme delivery has always been a strong focus for my work as demonstrated by the research project on women entrepreneurs that I recently completed (click for report)
