Summary
Boards rarely lack technology reporting.
What they often lack is one clear, independent view of whether technology is supporting strategy, controlling risk and creating business value.
I founded Keston Group to help close that gap.
For more than 25 years, I have led technology, cyber security and transformation across multinational, private equity-backed, founder-led and highly regulated organisations.
Having worked as a Director of Technology, Head of Cyber Security and global technology leader, I understand the reality behind the Board reports: competing priorities, legacy systems, cyber risk, supplier dependency, transformation pressure, constrained investment and the rapid emergence of AI.
Throughout my career, I repeatedly saw technically accurate reporting fail to create executive clarity.
That experience led me to create the Keston Technology Pulse™.
Technology Pulse™ is a light-touch, board-ready advisory service providing one independent executive view across:
• Technology Strategy
• Cyber Security
• AI Readiness
• Governance & Risk
• Projects & Delivery
• Investment Optimisation
It helps leadership teams answer the questions that matter:
Are we in a good position?
Where are we most exposed?
Are we investing in the right areas?
What needs our attention next?
Alongside Technology Pulse™, I provide independent advisory across technology strategy, cyber resilience, AI governance, technology due diligence, operating models, transformation and fractional CIO, CTO and CISO leadership.
My approach is pragmatic, commercially focused and vendor-neutral. I provide independent advice without implementation bias. When specialist delivery is required, Keston Group can introduce trusted partners suited to the organisation’s needs.
I work primarily with Boards, CEOs, CFOs, investors, PE-backed businesses and founder-led organisations navigating growth, transformation, investment or change.
If your leadership team would value an independent perspective on its technology, cybersecurity or AI landscape, I’d welcome a conversation.
Independent insight. Executive clarity. Measurable impact.
