How I Work - 3 Levels of Intervention
HOW I WORK
Three Levels of Intervention for Complex Projects Under Pressure
After 25 years managing complex transformations in engineering, pharma, and defence—from NATO-compliant plant upgrades to €750k+ project recoveries — I've learned this:
Projects don't fail because of methodology.
They fail because of
1) misaligned decisions,
2) unclear authority, and
3) leaders overwhelmed by stakeholder politics.
So I work at three levels — depending on where pressure is greatest and what kind of intervention creates lasting control.
MY APPROACH: CONTROL, CLARITY, LEADERSHIP STRENGTH
Whether I step in directly, strengthen the project lead, or up-skill the entire system —
the outcome is the same:
→ Control over chaos: Clear priorities, visible dependencies, decisions that move work forward
→ Calm authority: Leaders who can hold their ground in tense meetings without scrambling or over-explaining
→ Early visibility: Risks surfaced before they become crises, escalation that protects rather than punishes
This is how I bring clarity to pressure.
🚨Level 1: Immediate Control
Interim Management & Crisis Recovery
The Crown Protocol
I step in directly to stabilise mission-critical transformations under scrutiny. I carry responsibility, restore executive governance, and re-establish decision authority before cost, trust, or credibility are lost.
This is intervention — not advice.
📈 Level 2: Leadership Strength
Coaching for Project Leaders
The Calm Control Playbook
I don't replace the leader—I make them stronger, calmer, and clearer. Through structured coaching, I transfer judgment, not templates. Project leads develop the stakeholder management, decision confidence, and boundary-setting capability to lead under pressure without burning out.
This is development — not just skill training.
🌍 Level 3: Organisational Capability
Strategic Workshops & Facilitation
When patterns repeat and the system needs upgrading.I work with leadership teams and project organisations to build capability that prevents the next crisis. Teams learn how to make decisions that stick, escalate productively, and communicate with clarity. Leadership language becomes consistent. Conflict becomes productive.
This is prevention — not firefighting.
THE INTERVENTIONS CONNECT
Each level naturally leads to the others:
• After stabilising a project through interim management, I often coach the project lead to ensure sustainable independence
• When coaching reveals systemic patterns across multiple leaders, workshops create organizational capability
• When workshops reveal critical execution gaps in high-risk situations, I step in directly through interim management
This is not three businesses. This is one authority, three expressions.
