Originally from the UK, Ian has lived and worked in Southeast Asia for nineteen years. The last nine of those have been spent coaching and mentoring over sixty executives and business owners.

Ian’s specialist area is helping entrepreneurs and executives improve their strategy and revenues, retain their key team members, improve execution and build cash reserves.

He was formally certified and licensed as a coach in 2006 and is now one of only two Gazelles certified coaches in Singapore . A key attribute of Ian’s is helping to simplify complex ideas and creating practical step-by-step actions that generate positive momentum and results.

Having a Bachelors degree in biochemistry and a Masters degree in computing, Ian’s earlier education was spent in scientific and technology environments. This brings a practical and useful dimension to improving business performance. His experience helps him clearly define business problems with clients and leads them in developing specific solutions that create tangible and quantifiable results.
