HOW TO ENGAGE

I work with senior leaders facing complex product, data, and technology decisions—often where connected systems, edge platforms, sensing, and data architecture are central to business outcomes.

​

Engagements are designed to be focused, high-value, and grounded in real-world systems and execution.

INITIAL ADVISORY SESSION

The Initial Advisory Session is a standalone engagement intended to provide clear, actionable feedback and an experienced outside perspective.

Business Meeting Discussion
FORMAT
  • 60 minute focused session

  • Conducted directly with me

  • Remote by default (in-person by arrangement)

 

COMMON USES
  • Sanity-checking product, technology, or data strategy

  • Reviewing product or technology roadmaps

  • Assessing competitive positioning or differentiation

  • Reviewing decks, plans, or architectural direction

  • Identifying risks, gaps, and areas worth deeper investigation

  • For many teams, this session alone provides sufficient clarity to move forward internally.

 

INDICATIVE RATES

Initial Advisory Sessions are billed on an hourly basis.

  • Rate: $450 per hour

  • Minimum: 60 minutes

Exact scope and rate are confirmed prior to the session.

DEEPER ENGAGEMENTS

Deeper Advisory and Hands-On Engagements


When additional work is useful, follow-on engagements are scoped based on the nature of the problem and desired outcomes. These may include:

​

  • Product, data, or technology strategy development

  • Competitive and market assessment

  • Data architecture and system-level specification

  • Platform and portfolio rationalization

  • Hands-on collaboration with product and engineering teams

 

These engagements are custom-scoped and proposal-based.

Billing and Scheduling

​

Initial conversations are scheduled via the calendar link on the site or through direct contact. Engagement details and rates are confirmed in advance, and invoicing is handled directly following the session or as part of an agreed engagement.

​

There is no automated checkout or forced payment prior to discussion.
