The £15,000 Skills Gap

There is a visible gap between a standard Analyst and a trusted Senior Analyst. It is often worth £10,000–£15,000 in salary.Many analysts try to cross this gap by learning more technical tools and techniques. But that's generally not what holds you back.The real blockers are:
Influence: Can you stop a bad request before you start working on it?
Communication: Can you explain the "So What" to a non-technical manager in under 3 minutes?
Strategy: Can you link your analysis directly to the company's revenue?
AI is already learning to write code and clean data. To secure your career, you must master the strategic skills that AI cannot replace.

This is not a video course.

You cannot learn negotiation by watching a video. You have to practice it. We use a hybrid model to simulate the real-world environment of a Senior Analyst.
The "Learn-Do-Review" Loop:
1. The Concepts (Async): You get access to short, punchy training modules teaching my core frameworks (like the 7-Point Kick-off). You watch these on your own time.
2. The Application (Social): You apply those frameworks to real-world scenarios via async challenges and peer-review exercises.
3. The Feedback (Live): We meet for Group Office Hours to unblock you, review your "Missions," and refine your skills in real-time.

What you will master in 60 days...
1. Strategic Problem Definition: Stop being an order-taker. You will learn to conduct a "Kick-off Interview" for every request.
The Tool: You’ll master our 7-Point Stakeholder Script to define the decision upfront and eliminate rework.2. Advanced Influence & Narrative: Your data doesn't speak for itself. You will learn to translate findings into insights that demand action.The Tool: You’ll implement the "What → So What → Now What" Framework to structure every insight into a compelling 3-minute narrative.3. Proactive Business Alignment: Stop hoping people notice your hard work. You will learn to tie every ticket to the company's bottom line.The Outcome: You will build a portfolio of "Wins" to add serious clout to your next salary negotiation.

Invitation to the Founding Members Cohort

I am looking for 20 motivated analysts to join the very first cohort of this accelerator.Because this is a new programme, I am looking for active feedback to shape the experience. In exchange for your input and a testimonial at the end, I am offering a significant reduction in price.Standard Price: £799
Founding Member Price: £399*
This isn't for everyone. This is for analysts who are tired of being on the sidelines and are ready to become strategic partners to their business.* If you join I'll send you my Manager Approval Template - most organisations have a budget for training that this can be expensed to.
