How Successful Organisations Embrace Uncertainty

A man with a mission, Bryan has fought his way into executive meetings and boardrooms, changing minds and helping organisations draw value from their investment in risk management. He knows what works and what doesn’t.

In this book you will find the secret to designing an effective risk framework. Risky Business is at once a guide to the most successful way to introduce and embed this framework, and an exposé of some atrocious yet all too common risk management practices that must be repudiated if risk management is to deliver on its promise.

Bryan draws from a deep well of technical knowledge and experience, and adds some great storytelling, to offer practical ideas and solutions to support risk professionals, whether new to the game or more seasoned players. Risky Business is his gift to professionals who want to increase their impact on those they serve.

How to Turn Red Tape into Blue Ribbon

There is nothing more frustrating for the internal adviser than to watch your advice go unheeded. After all, you’re all on the same team, right? Too often that’s not enough. In this book Bryan introduces his Pathfinder Model, a practical approach to getting inside the minds of those you advise so all your conversations will be winning ones and all your advice perceived as blue ribbon.

How Teams Make Great Decisions

Drawing from over 25 years of experience, Bryan unveils the secrets of high performance through a unique decision-making perspective.

Delving into the heart of organisational and team dynamics, Bryan’s deep fascination with the intricacies of decision making, in the context of teams, becomes apparent. His journey, from a career as a chemical engineer, various roles in insurance and more than 20 years in management consulting, has led to his clear understanding of the challenges of speed, quality and consistency of team decisions, and the challenge of getting strategic, big-bet decisions right.

His aim is crystal clear – to equip individuals across all levels, from the Chair of the Board to team members and key decision advisors, with the tools to become more effective as leaders. Leaders who unblock bottlenecks and unlock the value of the collective intelligence of a team to make faster and better decisions. Lifting performance and taking high performers to another level.
