How I can help you.

I work with organisations and individuals across five areas. All are grounded in the same thing: practical engagement that people can apply straight away.

Workshops

Workshops go deeper than a talk. I help your team understand engagement, diagnose where they are, apply the frameworks to their own context, and identify clear next actions. The session itself is facilitated — I don't lecture at people, I work with them.

Workshops can stand alone or sit alongside a keynote or consulting engagement.

"Participants rated the training 4.77 out of 5. They consistently highlighted the session as practical, immediately applicable, and highly relevant to their day-to-day leadership roles."

— Santa Lukstina, Nordic Learning & Leadership Development Lead, KPMG (600+ participants)

"Participants rated the training 4.7 out of 5. We observed a material difference in staff behaviours and approaches to complex problems — which led us to request a repeat of the training for a further team."

— Roo Haywood Smith, Deputy Director of Faculty Operations, University of Exeter

"We were being engaged by the method he was teaching, even though we never knew it until the end."

— Diana-Georgiana Gheorghe, Raiffeisen Bank

Consulting

I work with organisations to help them engage the people they need to — employees, customers, communities. That means diagnosing what's getting in the way, designing processes and interventions, implementing systems, and seeing it through. Not just strategy — actual change.

"Before working with Ampersand Group, the LIDERA community comprised 1,992 members with average attendance of 138 per session. As a direct result, the community has grown to more than 4,300 members, with average attendance of 412 per session and a satisfaction rating of 4.50 out of 5."

— Felipe Martín Saráchaga, Staff Development Officer, United Nations Headquarters

"The engagement measurement for the Careers Service showed 28% growth — at a time when many university services had diminished engagement because of the pandemic."

— Mark Beresford, Student Engagement and Careers Operations Manager, University of Plymouth

"The techniques learnt proved to be even more useful than originally envisaged, as they have become part of the way many of our team members instinctively think about engagement."

— Michele Strudwick-Alexander, Chief of Staff Wellbeing, UNICEF

Engagement Representation

Sometimes organisations need someone to engage on their behalf — facilitating events, gathering stakeholders, representing them in spaces where relationships matter. I do this work directly, acting as an extension of your team.

Coaching, Mentoring & Advising

One-to-one sessions where you draw on my expertise and experience. We look at your situation, reflect on what's working and what isn't, and find a way forward. Practical, honest, no fluff.

"Scott helped me develop an engagement plan and coached me through the journey, so that I was able to protect the buy-in, navigate the internal politics, and protect my own wellbeing — whilst delivering the project and securing increased financial compensation for my work."

— Philippe Cubells, Chief Transformation Officer, Terra Lacta (formerly Gillette, Wrigley)

"Scott's mentorship was why my high-profile work leading a team allowed me to receive a promotion leading our Product Center of Excellence."

— Elizabeth Ferrao, Senior Manager of Product Development, CSpire

"Scott's cross-disciplinary perspective is rare and genuinely invaluable. These are areas where I feel permanently and meaningfully changed by his impact."

— Ryan Baum, Founder, Content Community Garden
