Hi, I’m Rich

I help people grow high-trust communities & decentralised organisations.

I'm co-founder of tech co-op Loomio, community building network Microsolidarity, non-hierarchical management consultancy The Hum, and director of the social impact collective Enspiral.

Coaching & Advice

If you want my advice or guidance, you can book me by the hour. I'm particularly suited to helping on topics like:

  • organising an exceptional event (conference, retreat, wedding)
  • building a team that's fun & effective
  • decentralising authority in an organisation
  • career advice: navigating towards more meaningful work
  • creating satsifying community for youself and others

Online Course

My awesome wife Nati & I made an online course sharing what we learned from the last decade working with decentralised organisations in 20+ countries:

Patterns For Self Organising Teams

Writing

I write about the subtle social dynamics you've experienced in groups but have probably never quite put into words before. You can find my writing on Substack, Medium, and Twitter. I'm a contributing author to the Enspiral book Better Work Together, and have a half-finished book about decentralised organisations available for purchase.
