Ian has navigated tough leadership terrain across multiple sectors—from tech innovators and healthcare systems to energy companies, financial institutions, and purpose-driven non-profits. As a skilled learning designer and workshop facilitator, Ian works with teams to re-tune their workflows, align on a new direction, and create a roadmap toward what's possible.
Ian specializes in four core areas:
Leadership Diagnostics - Working directly with leaders to identify the root causes of execution, communication, and alignment challenges within their teams.
Learning Design - Creating tailored workshops, courses, and/or tools that address specific organizational needs and unlock team potential.
Expert Facilitation - Delivering high-impact learning interventions that drive meaningful change and transform team dynamics.

This comprehensive approach can be applied to virtually any leadership challenge, whether it's navigating organizational change, aligning teams around new strategic directions, or developing critical leadership capabilities.
