observations and Insights

The Archive - Observations, Insights, Odds & Ends

Please find to follow an accumulation of thoughts, observations and insights that broadly accompany my work in and around businesses operating unders constraint and my interest in particular in the world of investments and communicating investment concepts usefully. Some will actively acompany Unlimited and my work on the Advantage framework, others will be more diverse. If they resonate, or prompt questions please connect with me on LinkedIn - I'd love to hear your thoughts.  

Much of what's written has or will appear as peridic posts on LinkedIn - but some ideas need more room than a post there allows or arrive in the kind of flurry that son't be appreciated over there! Some are part of series that don't make sense in islation until the series is complete, and some are simply useful obersvations to have online to be able to point people at.

Welcome to the new website!

Thanks for visiting.

I will be uploading various resources over the next few months to support the launch of Unlimited from May 2026, which may mean the shorter form insights are on hiatus before beginning again on the new site, or it may inspire more posts than ever - we'll have to see!
