What I'm actively exploring.

Research is where the next essays, frameworks and books begin. These are the threads I'm following now — publicly, so the work stays honest.

  • 01

    Product leadership in growing organisationsActive

    How product leadership must evolve as an organisation crosses the transition from founder-led delivery to a durable operating system.

  • 02

    Organisational maturityActive

    Culture, governance and leadership as the systems that decide whether organisations continue to improve — or quietly stagnate.

  • 03

    AI readiness for SMEsActive

    What small and medium-sized companies actually need in order to adopt AI meaningfully — beyond the noise, and beyond the demos.

  • 04

    Decision-making systemsOngoing

    The cadence, decision rights and postmortem practices that separate teams who learn from teams who repeat themselves.

  • 05

    Innovation in African marketsOngoing

    Product decisions that respect where customers actually live — and the institutions that get built when they do.
