Greymind Research

People, process and technology, moving together.

I lead teams through change. Mostly that means getting people excited about where they're going, because a plan only works if the people doing the work believe in it.

Why work with me

  1. 01

    Hands-on, but leading.

    I take the lead role myself, as an engineering manager, head of product or similar. I stay close enough to the work to really understand it, but I'm there to lead the team, not to do their jobs.

  2. 02

    People first.

    Change sticks when the team knows why it's happening and wants to own it. That's the part I'm best at.

  3. 03

    Look before building.

    Before deciding what to build or change, I map how the work actually happens today.

  4. 04

    Then I hand it over.

    Once things are moving, I help hire and coach the person who takes it from there.

I'll set up your smart home.

Network, sensors, lights and routines, installed and working.
