John, one of the consultants at our partner Sandhill Consultants in the UK, has worked in both multinational organisations and SMEs, in public and private sector, as an employee and a contractor, in roles covering manufacturing, sales, new product development, operational and strategic marketing, finance, IT and business transformation. This has involved a lot (really, a lot) of projects, programmes and portfolios. He is a big believer in KEEPING THINGS SIMPLE and avoiding drowning in too much detail!
