Business
Thoughts on entrepreneurship, execution, leadership and building companies.
Ideas from the work
Experience shouldn’t stay with one person.
A supplier conversation can teach negotiation. A failed idea can teach strategy. A factory can teach operations. A new market can challenge everything you assumed you knew.
This is where I share those lessons — perspectives shaped by the situations, people and businesses I encounter.
Areas of focus
Lessons from the work itself.
Global Trade
Lessons from working across countries, cultures and international markets.
China
Perspectives from years of living, working and building relationships inside one of the world’s most important business ecosystems.
Supply Chain
Practical observations on sourcing, suppliers, logistics, costing and operations.
Entrepreneurship
What starting, failing, adapting and continuing to build has taught me.
Learning
Ideas from working with students, universities, entrepreneurs and industry.
The editorial standard
Useful because it has been lived.
The ideas published here will begin with a real situation, examine what happened, and end with a practical framework. The mistakes and changed assumptions matter as much as the outcome.
