KB Consulting

Strategic insight. Practical solutions. Lasting impact.

Picture

​Over the past decade, I’ve advised leaders across education, government, and mission-driven organizations on strategy, operations, and transformation. My consulting journey has taken me from top-tier firms in the UK and Canada to independent projects where I partner directly with clients to turn ideas into action.
​
Today, through KB Consulting, I bring the best of both worlds: the structured, analytical approach of global consulting firms, combined with the flexibility and personal touch of an independent advisor.

Areas of Focus

  • Education & Policy Strategy – Helping schools, universities, and Ministries design forward-looking strategies and navigate change.
  • Organizational Growth & Transformation – Supporting leadership teams in governance, operational improvement, and continuous improvement.
  • Innovation & Emerging Technologies – Integrating AI, digital learning, and market insights into practical recommendations.
  • Social Impact & Ventures – Partnering with startups and social enterprises to refine business models, scale operations, and maximize impact.
