I previously worked in Defence, Health and Revenue Collection. I am semi-retired and spend my time working with others in an analytics shed to explore ideas and to develop innovative products and services to assist with analysis and decision making. One of the shed’s current focal areas is deception and the detection of insider threats in organizations. My interests include analytics, use of digital assessments to measure human capabilities, organizational learning, organizational decision making, and innovation and disruptive change. My specialist skill is digital profiling -i.e. using a combination of machine learning and human judgment to profile people of interest such as fraudsters, security threats, dangerous drivers, captains of industry and political leaders.

I am an experienced consultant and group facilitator. I have worked directly with corporate leaders in Australia and internationally. In addition to leadership development work, I have conducted in-company diagnostic surveys and strategic planning workshops. I am a selection system expert and have practical expertise in all areas of workplace relations, personnel systems, and strategic organisational analysis. Prior to working in the public sector I spent several years as a consultant working with businesses on leadership development and strategy enhancement. I assisted the leaders of organisations to transform their visions into action.
