As your portfolio companies grow, product–GTM alignment, operational maturity, and leadership capability become critical levers for value creation. But too often, product teams lack commercial context, GTM functions operate in silos, and execution slows just when growth should accelerate.
​
I support founders, product leaders, and cross-functional teams inside your portfolio to build scalable practices, coach key leaders, and create the operational clarity that drives business outcomes.
How I Help
I work alongside investors and operating partners to support strategic product and cross-functional alignment inside portfolio companies, acting as an external coach, advisor, or interim leader where needed.
Assessing Product & Org Maturity
Some companies have great products but weak processes. Others have strong execution but no clear strategy. Spotting these gaps early prevents value erosion and avoids surprises at the next stage of growth.
​
What we do:
I run assessments of product and cross-functional maturity, surfacing where teams are misaligned, underpowered, or missing key capabilities. This informs coaching, hiring, and org design and sets a clear path to scale.
​
​
Coaching Product Leaders & Founders
Product and engineering leaders often lack experienced mentorship, especially in high-growth environments. Without the right support, they can stall or burn out.
​
What we do:
I coach Heads of Product, VP-level leaders, and founders on how to lead at scale, covering from strategic prioritisation to stakeholder management and team development. This builds internal leadership capacity and accelerates maturity across the product function.
​
​
Strengthening Product-GTM Alignment
Misalignment between product, sales, marketing and customer success creates friction, slows growth, and weakens retention. The longer it lasts, the harder it is to fix.
​
What we do:
Through targeted workshops or advisory engagements, I help portfolio companies align product with GTM teams around shared goals, improve customer journey handoffs, and embed rituals & KPIs that drive collaboration.
​
​
Supporting Planning & Strategic Moments
M&A integration, annual planning, board reporting are moments that matter. But they’re often rushed or siloed, creating unnecessary risk.
​
What we do:
I support founders and teams during strategic moments by facilitating planning cycles, helping prepare for board meetings, or supporting integration efforts post-M&A. This ensures key decisions are made with alignment and clarity.

​All engagements are tailored to your needs and challenges. I don't use off-the-shelf frameworks or a one-size fits all approach.
