Research
My research has two connected tracks.
Startup Operations Research
I’m currently running a structured series of interviews with founders, investors and operators to map the common bottlenecks in early stage execution and growth. This work is feeding into the development of the Execution Bridge™, a practical methodology for helping early stage teams move from vision to traction. I’ll be publishing more on this over the coming months.
Creative Systems Research
Alongside my work with startups, I run a parallel research track focused on creative systems, value loops and decision structures. This work looks at how meaning, attention and narrative shape the way ideas take form over time. It feeds directly into my conceptual art practice and into the strategic tools I design for early stage teams. I’ll be publishing essays and notes from this research as it develops.
The two tracks reinforce each other. The primary track is applied. The secondary track explores the underlying mechanics of value and behaviour.
