Due to the pandemic, this work was refocussed on delivering a new customer portal in record time, going from initial scoping to go-live with customers in 8 weeks. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/60e32c9d7c13710bc8db35e2/t/60e5c3a97cdf7b3a1930aa5c/1637316398973/unsplash-image-KpHTwMls5cs.jpg Home - Deep Tech Space Startup During a 6 month contract, I helped this company refine the story of their business, internally and externally. Internally, this meant codifying their values and cultural practices so that employees felt more engaged, and externally this was redefining their strategic narrative, including go-to market, PR, online and fundraising strategy - which was key to supporting the multi-million seed round they closed. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/60e32c9d7c13710bc8db35e2/t/60e5c3fe670aaf102b04d779/1637316398980/unsplash-image-6MafHMTYgxk.jpg Home - NY-based Innovation Agency For this client, I was contracted to develop a comprehensive course on innovation for executive education. I then delivered this course, on behalf of an EMEA government client, to leading industry executives, with an extremely high approval rating. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/60e32c9d7c13710bc8db35e2/t/60e5c46d18b0c52485b8fb39/1637316398969/tierra%2Bdel%2Bfuego.jpg Home - I’m Charlie. I’m a strategist, founder, storyteller and adventurer. When not building my own businesses, I help other ambitious businesses grow, in three main ways: Storytelling. I help companies tell their stories better. This is usually for startups who need help defining their strategic narrative to engage with customers or investors. Scaling Up. I help companies build rigour into their operations. As companies begin to scale, process and framework is needed to make that an efficient process, and I help companies manage that pain. Ventures. I often work with large corporates who are looking to build out new products or business lines. I do the work to define and validate these new products and businesses. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/60e32c9d7c13710bc8db35e2/t/60e5c3c099c6af23f60298bf/1637316398977/unsplash-image-3-y9vq8uoxk.jpg Home - SF-based Innovation Agency Over a year’s engagement, I rebuilt and refocussed an accelerator program with clients like BP, IBM and RNM, driving program NPS. As well as this, I productised the corporate accelerator model, enabling rapid scale of opportunities into new markets, leading to new leads and new deals.
