Complex Projects Don’t Fail Overnight.
They Fail Slowly — Then All at Once.
Complex projects don’t fail because of lack of effort — they fail because of hidden risks, misaligned teams, and leadership blind spots. When you face stalled initiatives, wasted resources, and eroding confidence — a proven recovery process becomes mission-critical. When failure isn’t an option — you need clarity, control, and a trusted partner who has done this before.
That’s where I come in.
I partner with senior executives, project sponsors, and founders to rapidly assess underperforming projects, stabilize execution, and guide recovery — using my proprietary The CRITICAL PATH Framework™— a structured, 7-stage methodology designed to rapidly assess, stabilize, and relaunch high-stakes projects.
My approach delivers clear, actionable insight within 2 weeks — and a stabilized path forward in under 90 days.
Here's what that looks like
-
Clarify the Crisis - Surface Reality. Fast.
I cut through noise, opinions, and assumptions — delivering a clear-eyed view of what’s really happening.
-
Reassess Priorities - Focus on What Matters Now.
Together, we reset goals, re-sequence deliverables, and align stakeholders.
-
Investigate Constraints - Find What’s Blocking Progress.
I diagnose bottlenecks, resource gaps, and decision-making friction slowing you down.
-
Triage the Team - Realign Roles & Responsibility.
Reset ownership, clarify decision rights, and restore trust within the team.
-
Implement Quick Wins - Build Momentum Fast.
We create visible progress early — restoring energy and credibility.
-
Create the Recovery Roadmap - Define the Critical Path Forward.
A clear, actionable plan with milestones, risks, and governance.
-
Accelerate Delivery - Lead with Confidence.
Ongoing advisory and support to execute with speed, control, and oversight.
-
Lock in Governance - Secure the Recovery.
We formalize decision rights, escalation paths, and performance routines to prevent backsliding — ensuring this time, progress lasts.
