Hi, I’m Ian — Founder of TheStrategySmith.
I’ve been where you are: driving growth, managing complexity.
Before launching TheStrategySmith, I spent over two decades leading growth and transformation across industries — from scaling SMEs to steering £20 billion enterprises through global expansion.
I’ve seen what happens when strategy connects — and when it doesn’t. I’ve led teams through high-growth chaos, integrated multi-country operations, and helped boards turn ambition into measurable results.
Now, I help business leaders unlock the next stage of performance. We bring the highest level of strategic precision, leaner, faster, and focused on what really moves the needle.
