From 2006 to 2020, I worked via The Michael Sampson Company Limited.

My domain of interest was how people and teams can embrace changing conditions to pursue transformation, with a focus on new technologies that supported rethinking work practices, organisational design, culture and business models.

Please check out my portfolio – of books, reports, workshops, and keynotes.
