I help companies prevent what employees pay me to recover from.
For 18 years I worked inside HSBC, Google, Accenture, and Cisco. Then I became a trauma therapist, and the casualties of untrained managers started landing in my chair. UNLOOPED is the way out of that loop: new manager training and leadership programs built on clinical science, not management folklore. Not a training. A shift in how your managers think, decide, and hold up under pressure.

Training that turns leaders into the retention strategy.
Every UNLOOPED program runs on two engines: WATCH™, my framework for leading under pressure, and Metaction™, my method for turning insight into behavior that survives a stressful Tuesday. Both come from the same place — years of treating what happens to teams when managers never learned either.
