Hello.
I’m Alex.
“If your team is facing change, I’d love to understand what that feels like for them. Not to tell them to be fearless. To help them find a way forward.”
I’m not interested in telling people to “just be positive”. I’m interested in what helps when the plan has changed and the next step feels harder than it should.

I thought I knew
who I was.
Then the job went.
I grew up in Leeds, the son of a bus driver and a school secretary. I was the first in my family to go to university. I carried a quiet belief into working life: if I worked hard enough, I could make everything secure.
For eighteen years, I built a career in operations and led teams through expansion, difficult decisions and change. Then, at forty-one, a restructure made me redundant. One meeting took away the title, the routine and the future I had pictured.
At home, I told my wife Emma I was fine. She knew I wasn’t. On a long coastal walk, she asked, “If nobody needed your job title tomorrow, what would you still bring?” It was the question I had been avoiding.
I started with a small peer group for people between jobs. Listening to their stories taught me something I had missed as a manager: people don’t need a perfect leader. They need someone who can be honest, make space and help them see what’s possible.
That group became workshops, and the workshops became talks. Today I bring that same human approach to conferences, leadership teams and organisations navigating change. Emma and I still take those walks. The questions are usually better now.
Alex, Emma and this biography are fictional characters created for the DLB lookbook.
The difference
in the room.
The conversation carried on long after the session. Our managers left with better questions, not another list of slogans.
