ABOUT SECOND ARROW CONSULTING

A systems-informed, evidence-based approach to strategy and renewal

I help Boards, executives, and senior leadership teams in education, policy, and mission-driven institutions navigate transition, uncertainty, and strategic renewal — turning ambiguous pressure into grounded decisions.

Who I work with

• Leadership teams at pivotal moments of change.

• Organisations needing diagnostic clarity before action.

• Groups seeking alignment across governance, strategy, and culture.

What I help with

• Strategic diagnosis and alignment.

• Strategy development and renewal support.

• Leadership advisory during transition.

Why this matters

In complex environments, hastily jumping to solutions often leads to misaligned strategy and avoidable friction. I specialise in helping leaders pause, diagnose, and act with clarity — so your next move is grounded, purposeful, and sustainable.

Where my experience comes from
I bring more than 20 years of senior leadership, policy engagement, and international consulting experience. I’ve worked with universities, mission-driven institutions, and governance bodies across Australia, New Zealand, North America, and Europe — often at moments of strategic transition and organisational renewal.

How I work
My approach blends systems thinking, deep listening, and practical synthesis. Engagements typically involve structured stakeholder dialogues, strategic sense-making, and collaborative framing that helps teams see the big picture and the immediate next steps.

Values in practice

• Authenticity — honest, grounded conversations.

• Curiosity — asking the questions that matter.

• Reciprocity — partnership, not prescription.

• Commitment to impact — results that stick.
