Credentials
Founder, Kopka Performance Partners | Strategic Operator | Transformation & Performance Consultant | Executive & Founder Coach
Strategic Operator
I haven't just studied what makes businesses succeed. I've built them, operated them, broken things, rebuilt them and carried the consequences of the decisions along the way.
My career spans two worlds that rarely collide in traditional coaching: the boardrooms of major global organisations and the operational reality of building and running businesses myself.
Founder
I've worked with organisations including Amazon, Goldman Sachs, Vodafone, ASOS and Bentley, bringing expertise in corporate transformation, organisational performance, leadership development and complex change.
I've also been the founder on the other side of the table. Responsible for the people, the payroll, the cash flow, the difficult conversations and the decisions that don't come with a playbook.
That combination is my competitive advantage.
Coach
I'm a thinking partner & coach who understands human behaviour, a transformation specialist who understands organisational complexity, and a strategic operator who understands what it takes to make a business actually work.
I bring corporate-grade methodologies, commercial discipline and hands-on experience into the founder-led business world, translating approaches used in major organisations into practical, scalable solutions.
Through Kopka Performance Partners, I've developed my proprietary RESET Method™ and RESET Leadership Stack™ to address what conventional coaching and consulting often treat separately: the performance of the leader, the stability of the business and the operating systems connecting them.
I don't operate exclusively in theory, reflection or strategy. I work at the point where all three have to translate into decisions, action and measurable progress. And perhaps most importantly, I understand the reality behind the polished success stories. I've navigated the uncertainty, the pressure and the personal cost of entrepreneurship, while also knowing what disciplined, high-performing organisations require.
My credibility doesn't come from teaching founders what they should do. It comes from combining the expertise to know what works, the experience to know what can go wrong, and the capability to help them execute what happens next.
I don't just coach the person. I strengthen the leader, challenge the strategy and help build the business capable of delivering it.
That's the difference between having someone to talk to and having someone you can genuinely build with.
