Hello!

Imagine a subtropical island in the South China Sea without cars, no traffic jams, no high-rise buildings but with lush green vegetation and remote sandy beaches. This idyllic peninsula is Lamma Island, a tranquil oasis a mere 20-minute ferry ride from Central, the BCD on Hong Kong island, that I call my home.

For the past 20 years I have designed and facilitated innovation, problem-solving, and creativity workshops across the world in cities such as Amsterdam, London, Jakarta, Singapore, Shanghai and Hong Kong, transforming organisations into competitive businesses by developing commercial products and scalable services.

My collaborative programmes and projects help leaders develop their skills, behaviours and capabilities, to improve their performance, the performance of their teams and the performance of the business.

I partner both with for-profit and non-profit organisations such as Nike, Adidas, General Assembly, Star Wars, UBS, Astellas, Carrier, Asia Society, Prudential, Google, Phillips, Li & Fung, Heineken, WWF, Engineers Without Borders, among others.

As well as my business practice I’m a workshop designer and facilitator for General Assembly (GA), an American for-profit education organisation upskilling and reskilling employees at Tetra Pak, Carrier, Danone, and Astellas across the APAC region.

I am a visiting professor for the Sino-German Faculty of Branding, an international programme at Zhejiang Wanli University in Ningbo, China. Each autumn and spring semester I deliver two courses about design strategy and international branding; subjects such as glocalisation, cultural dimensions, organisational culture, cultural principles, cross-cultural communication, and brand management.

Occasionally I write about art, creativity, and innovation on my ‘insights’ blog, and produce and host The Last Supper, a weekly podcast dedicated to emerging and established artists, curators, gallerists and collectors in Asia. Ranked in the top 10, my podcast is supported by Christie's and the Hong Kong Art Gallery Association (HKAGA).
