Hi, I'm Nick.I specialize in helping "stuck" organizations reinvent themselves - whether through purpose and product innovation (WHAT THEY DO) or cultural transformation (HOW THEY DO IT).I believe that humans and their collective behaviours are the currency of business renewal. My work consistently empowers teams to discover, embrace, and spread a “(Re)Founders” Mindset.My unique perspective, skillset, and personal intellectual property have been honed over 25+ years of remarkable experiences with incredible organizations, including:*Establishing a global innovation culture for Pernod-Ricard*Inventing the proposition for Amazon Prime*Creating a portfolio of fermented food start-up ideas for Danone*Transforming Clearwater International into the first truly purpose-driven M&A Advisory*Translating Google’s culture into a transformative experience for their clientsMost recently, I have designed, launched, and embedded a comprehensive marketing culture transformation across PepsiCo's global marketing community.I am a catalyst for change in teams and organizations. According to clients and colleagues:- “His great intellect and insightful viewpoint are matched by his warmth and humanity.”- “Nick is a rare combination of stellar thinking, practical application, and a first-rate, accountable attitude.”- “What makes Nick unique is his combination of sage experience and an infectiously engaging style, making the innovation journey both inspiring and grounded in real business results.”If your organization is struggling to thrive, I can help unleash a creative, innovative culture within your team or business.I live in Sheffield UK, on the edge of the Peak District, with my partner, two teenage daughters, an Australian Labradoodle, and an extensive vinyl collection.

Installing Game-Evolving Mindset And Practices In You And Your OrganisationNick The Inventor Oct 2017 - PresentSheffield, England, United KingdomThe capability of an organisation to secure its future exist is defined by ‘Purpose’ and ‘Culture’.Purpose is why, if you didn’t already exist, the world would absolutely need you to be invented.Culture is the operating system for productive human interaction to achieve that purpose.I’ll be honest, everything else is pretty secondary. But in most orgs, the means still dictate and stifle the ends. Most kind of know this. But they feel utterly pessimistic about changing it.But it can be changed, because it’s just about a bunch of humans with power re-asserting the priorities by re-founding the purpose and culture. Which, ergo, is about a bunch of humans deciding together to just be bold and do it.If it’s hard, it’s psychologically and politically so. The barriers are soft ones.So if you really need to get good at growing but are wondering how, I can bring an epiphany around:- Why we currently aren’t- How we absolutely can- What we need to change- How we get that goingI work with senior practitioners with the passion and position to change what happens in your organisation.I am happy to come and speak to you about my perspective on healthy, thriving businesses and how to truly re-found your organisation in the modern era.

Co-Creator, "The O-Journey", People-Led Transformation ProgrammeNick The Inventor - Temporary Contract With Google Jan 2019 - Aug 2020London, England, United KingdomI worked on contract as co-creator of the 'O' Journey at Google, with my friends at the Google Digital Academy.The 'O' Journey is an experience that helps organisations of all sizes kick off a journey towards becoming a thriving, "digitally" transformed company. Across a short series of interventions, the team use learnings from within Google and other contemporary companies to unpack what drives success in the very different landscape of today.We outline the role of "people-led transformation", at Google, with a focus on- How Google keeps purpose central, and their mission-driven customer-centricity- How Google fosters innovation and experimentation through an attribute-driven culture- How to demystify and harness technology as an enabler- How to make unreasonable progress through use of Google Ventures-style sprintsThe programme works as a rapid "demo and install". We demonstrate features that are key to Google's success but then help to install them in your organisation.Last year we tested and refined the programme in a series of Alphas. This year we are adapting it in the current world to work as a physical and purely digital journey and are looking forward to running more Beta tests.The need to transform to become a modern, agile experimental company with empowered, powerful people at the heart has only been accelerated by Coronavirus.
