Fix your failing transformation
Stabilise major change programmes with clear structure, steady leadership, and a delivery rhythm your teams can rely on.
When transformation goes off track, you feel it everywhere
Deadlines slip, updates feel vague and teams are confused about who owns what. Leadership starts asking harder questions in every meeting.
​
You're not alone. Most transformation programmes fail long before anyone admits it publicly. The warning signs are always the same: milestones that keep moving, reporting that tells you nothing useful, and a growing sense that the whole thing is sliding sideways.
​
If you're here, something isn't working. And you're looking for someone who can stabilise delivery without starting from scratch.
Why transformations fail
It's not because people aren't trying hard enough. Structure breaks down under scale, and the gaps show up quickly.
We see the same patterns:
-
No PMO, or a PMO that's already overwhelmed
-
Unclear ownership across teams​
-
Vendors working to different timelines
-
Governance that doesn't match the complexity of what you're trying to deliver
-
Reporting that's optimised for looking busy rather than showing real progress
-
Over-reliance on individual heroes to hold everything together
Transformation doesn't fail dramatically. It fails quietly, and then all at once.
How we bring a failing transformation back to life
We don't arrive with a diagnostic framework and a 60-page deck. We embed with your teams and stabilise delivery from day one.
We start with a rapid diagnostic to understand where the breakpoints actually are. Then we rebuild the foundations: governance that works, ownership that's clear, reporting that tells the truth, and a delivery rhythm that keeps people aligned. We connect the dots between people, systems, and priorities. The result is momentum you can see and measure.
Rapid diagnostic
We identify the reasons your transformation is slipping: unclear ownership, weak governance, overloaded teams, or poor sequencing.
You get clarity on what’s broken and what must change first.
Governance reset
We establish the structure your transformation has been missing: roles, decision rights, meeting cadence, and reporting that leaders can rely on. It brings alignment and reduces the noise that slows everything down.
PMO setup or uplift
We build or strengthen the delivery engine behind the programme. That includes practical frameworks, templates, risk management, dependency tracking, and a way of working that keeps teams focused and coordinated.
Restore delivery rhythm
We put a predictable weekly cycle in place so progress becomes visible again. Clear updates, real escalation paths, aligned priorities, and agreed next steps help the programme regain momentum and stay on track.
"Michael and I met during a challenging time in an operational environment that had multiple competing priorities. Michael and his team worked closely with me on prioritising, managing and then resolving a mountain of issues and did so with humour and style.
I would love to work with Michael again. He brings energy, fun and solutions to business situations and worked with me, at pace, to resolve things. He is open to feedback, broad minded in getting things done and his flexibility was exceptional."

What you get in 30 to 60 days
A transformation that finally feels manageable again; with teams aligned, communication flowing, milestones holding, and reporting that reflects real progress. Leadership gains confidence in what’s happening and what’s coming next. The chaos doesn’t vanish overnight, but the direction of travel shifts quickly and noticeably.
Case studies
We aligned Product, Enablement and Ops at Skillsoft to create a single launch rhythm for new programmes, introducing shared scheduling, automation, and vendor scalability. The result was 30% faster launches and a predictable global delivery model.
For Attercop, we built the delivery infrastructure for a scaling AI consultancy, implementing a fractional PMO and consistent frameworks across client portfolios. Forecasting accuracy rose by 40%.
