THE PRACTICE

the culture leader you need before you're ready to hire one.

Comprehensive senior culture leadership without a full-time hire.

We operationalize your culture through onboarding, leadership basics, ways of working, product training — any foundational work you have a distinct point of view on.

We step in and do the early organizational work: the structure that keeps things consistent as you scale. Dwayne has led learning and culture teams at On, Zalando and Apple, and managed brand programs at Adidas and Lululemon. That's the range you get, on your terms.

“Dwayne has a rare ability to translate business intent into learning experiences that resonate across an organization. His work always felt grounded in personal and company values and the ripple effect continues long after the programs were launched.”

HOW WE PARTNER

The first ninety days.

01

Discovery: We talk about where you are, what you're trying to build and what's in the way.

02

Scope: We propose what we'd own, how many days a week, and what the first 90 days look like.

03

Embedded: We work inside your team. Your meetings, your tools, your people by name.

04

Handoff: We build it so you don't need us. When it stands on its own, we step back and you keep everything.

From €10,000 for three months

Longer partnerships are scoped by days per week. One day a week runs from €40,000 a year, two days a week from €80,000. Investment is scoped to your situation, so let's talk. Engagements run in person, virtually, or hybrid, and in person includes travel. Value-based pricing is available for outcome-linked work.

WHAT YOU'LL GAIN

  • The cultural essentials, built by someone who's done it at scale.

  • Programs your people use (and look forward to).

  • A team set up to carry it forward.

  • The collaboration & facilitation work handled, not outsourced.

60% pessimistic→68% optimistic

The challenge

A 30-person startup began the year with broken trust. A perceived lack of leadership accountability and transparency, plus an inconsistently applied return-to-office mandate, hurt morale, with 60% of the team reporting a pessimistic outlook for the year ahead.

The process

We designed a full-day session that shifted blame to ownership, so everyone could step up to own something. Leadership explained and owned past decisions, made public commitments with timelines, and the entire team co-created solutions. Real-time sentiment tracking measured how perspectives shifted throughout the day.

10
leadership commitments, each with a named owner and date
2
CEO-sponsored cross-functional projects, with team members owning the project manager and deputy roles
20
individual team solutions, pulled up from the team as silos dissolved through strategic pairing
5
brand values, each linked to an exercise, revitalizing faith in the team's culture
One concentrated day saved months of meetings, inaction, and the ongoing strain of team members not feeling heard.

"Most people walked in skeptical. By the end, they left feeling heard, valued, and genuinely optimistic about the year ahead."

What happened next.

CURRENTLY ADVISING

Dwayne is Strategic Advisor to Manageable, a UK company helping managers build leadership confidence and habits.

At On, Dwayne led the buildout of “Leadership Essentials,” a program shortlisted for two 2024 Business Culture Awards: Best Learning Initiative for Business Culture and Best International Initiative. Manageable partnered on that program, saw his approach to the work up close, and brought him on to advise theirs.
