Past experience
I worked in the Scottish Prison Service for over 18 years most of which were in senior managerial positions. I project managed a major cultural change programme and led many of the main sub groups. I was responsible for reporting to the two SPS Board Area Directors, responsibilities included analysing and reporting on strategic plans for 23 prisons, communications, and mentoring, training and organisational change. I've been able to use my qualifications in psychology and business, as well as other related areas, together with a wide ranging experience of adaptive behaviour to bring my clients a professional and flexible range of adaptive and change programmes.

Additional information

Rather than me tell you here are some testimonilas from clients.

“Working with Pete enabled us to leverage our business, gain a new insight and focus on the business and increased our profits. I would strongly recommend his services particularly at this time when focus and a creative objective opinion are vital for businesses to be successful.” Director - Ruth McKay
 
"Thanks for your facilitation of the team's development day carried out recently. It was interesting to see how the individual role types worked out and this certainly gave the team some food for thought. The most beneficial aspect was the action focused goal setting and action planning section. It was clear to us that we were not working in synchronicity with the organisation as a whole - we are now!" Director - Royal Bank of Scotland
 
 “I have known and worked with Pete for over four years now and always found him to be a source of common sense yet innovative ideas. His patience is boundless and I would highly recommend anyone considering assistance with their business to speak to Pete - you know it makes sense!” Janet Torley
 
"Pete’s challenges, support and diverse knowledge of leadership and management skills meant I was able to get past where I wanted to more quickly than I thought possible. His ability to help you see your vision and go for it has helped me get to where I am today. If anything he helps you believe in what you are and focuses you on the right skills to achieve your goals." Director - Menzie’s Hotel Group
 
“The year we spent working with Pete enabled us to really focus on where we wanted the business to be within the next 3-5 years. Having clearly identified where we wanted to be Pete helped us to establish our present position and then provided very clearly set out, action based solutions and outcomes. Invaluable!" Director - Living Solutions
