Most of what's on this site is free or self-serve — the guides, the tools, the writing. This page is the one exception: a small number of ongoing advisory conversations for people working through something hard.
Start the Conversation →
Not a retainer, not a project, not a consultant who tells you what to do. A monthly thinking partnership for a CI lead, operations manager, or senior leader working through a specific challenge — resistance, a stalled initiative, a sponsor who's gone quiet, improvement that isn't sticking.
Each month we take the situation you're actually in — not the version in the status report — and work through it together. What's really blocking it. What to try next. When to push, when to pause, and when to walk away. You bring the context; I bring 15 years of being in those rooms, including the ones where I got it wrong.
Everything is remote, scheduled around your calendar. Between sessions you can email me when something shifts — I read everything and reply to all of it.
Advisory spots are kept few so each conversation gets the attention it deserves. Here's an honest guide to whether this is the right fit.
"As a young operations manager, working with Mark was a pivotal part of my leadership journey. He led us through Lean and CI principles with an equal grasp of theory and practical reality. The CI tools, visual management systems, and lean thinking he instilled have become non-negotiables in how I lead. I'm incredibly grateful for the opportunity."
"Mark's style blends his analytical skills with his effortless ability to engage people. Through this combination he is able to achieve value driven outcomes. Mark understands that people are at the core of sustained and continuous improvement."
No pitch, no sales process. Describe what you're dealing with and I'll give you an honest response about whether — and how — I can help.
