Hi. I'm Ian.
I help people go from a life of purposeless toil1 to a life of purpose,2 less toil.3

Most of what I do sits at the intersection of faith, human experience, and work. If you get that, you'll like it here. Scroll on to learn more, or skip ahead and connect.

Currently: writing, coaching, scaling.

01 Footnote one  ·  from purposeless toil

More hope, less cope.

We're all running programs that shape our experience, most installed for us, most operating in the background, and a lot of it malware. I'm writing a book about spotting the scripts, debugging the wiring, and rewriting a life on purpose, drawing on faith, psychology, and fifteen years of watching people try to build something that matters. Chapters will be delivered as each is finished.

Accelerator Program to unlock Talent & Impact.

Most founders are over-working and under-flourishing, running hard on the practical while the personal rusts out in the background. The Vector Accelerator Program is a 6-month done-with-you install of the operating system your business needs to run without you in every seat. I bring the operational rigor and the full version of me to every engagement.

  • ForFounder-led service businesses ready to break through their ceiling.
  • FocusA working operating system: installed, running, and owned by your team.

I scale businesses built on purpose.

Purpose-driven leaders don't need more tactics. They need a system. The Vector OS is an operational co-founder relationship: thought partnership on business design, hands-on system and process installation, and team leadership to make it stick. Installed, tuned to your business, and yours to keep.
