Unfiltered: A Consultant's Concoction

“Unfiltered” is a consultant’s uninhibited journal of what truly matters— beyond frameworks pitches and promotions. Through candid reflections and real-life stories drawn from three decades from shop floors to board rooms this book explores leadership with all its contradictions midlife with its quiet reckonings and work with its often-unspoken truths. From managing public sector complexity to steering digital transformations across manufacturing sectors the author traces a career that never followed a straight line but always followed a sense of purpose. The book is structured around three sections—Dogma (the systems we inherit) Karma (the choices we make) and Filter Coffee (the meaning we search for). Each chapter blends professional insight with personal reflection written not to preach but to provoke thought. This book draws from both worlds—not as a memoir but as a set of field notes for those navigating leadership legacy and the “letting go” that midlife often brings. It isn’t a prescription but a perspective forged over years in steel sharpened in consulting and softened through reflection. Ideal for mid-career professionals young consultants or anyone asking “what’s next?” this is not a how-to guide—but a why-to journey. Brewed slow best sipped with introspection.
