2025 Comes to an end

21 Dec 2025

It feels like the right time to send out my gratitude to a number of friends colleagues and clients here on LinkedIn who have helped put XTP on the road this year. 👊

We've had a successful start up and could never have imagined how far we have come. 📈

A big thank you to those who have mentored me, guided me, prodded and pushed me and when I fell, picked me up. 🙏

There are some amazing resources within everyone's networks. Hopefully you are also oiling the wheels of your networks too, so you can reach out or offer that guiding hand when the time is right. 👥

The XTP White Paper on Trusted Partnerships will be out in early February and I look forward to sharing this with you and helping clients build stronger and more fruitful alliances in 2026 and beyond. 🤝

Have a peaceful holiday season and best wishes for 2026. 🌟

Update!

April 2025

Been a long week and glad to be back in the office today. For those I met this week, who asked what I am doing, thought I’d better update

I have my own consulting practice and working on several exciting projects. Big shout out to those colleagues for helping make the transition.
