How about having an insider in your corner?

Imagine having someone who knows exactly how talent decisions are made at the top — and is entirely on your side.

Someone outside your organisation, with no agenda other than yours. Who understands the unspoken dynamics of executive careers — how key appointments are made, what gets noticed at the top, why some leaders get backed and others plateau.

And who brings all of that into discreet, candid conversations with you.

That is what I offer.

Before founding Best Chapter, I spent over 25 years in senior HR leadership including as Global Talent Lead at GSK — in the rooms where these decisions happen. Now I bring that perspective exclusively to you.

I work with senior leaders across the full arc of their careers — not only at moments of transition, but through every stage where the stakes are high and honest thinking is hard to find. Most clients come around a specific situation. They stay to build what comes next.

This is a small, deliberate practice. A select number of clients at any one time — individuals and the organisations who take talent seriously.

Based between London and Budapest. Working internationally.
