I write about the subtle drivers of influence and power in modern professional practice.
My lens blends real-world leadership experience with timeless nuances, from Sun Tzu and Machiavelli, to separate substance from corporate noise. I prefer clarity over jargon and insight over sermons.
Although I have been writing since my younger days, I began to claim my authorship more deliberately from 2021 onward. To date, I have authored five books, including two volumes of a trilogy, Warrior Quest, inspired by The Art of War. As a bestselling author of Book II of the trilogy and seasoned practitioner, my work sits at the intersection of nuanced leadership, execution, and wisdom of the classics.
Much of my writing explores the wisdom of seminal classics such as The Art of War and The Prince. More recently, I have embraced the transformative edge of satire. PM POKES is one such work—circulated privately—because not everyone has skin thick enough for humour that cuts close to the truth.
My portfolio spans both serious analysis and satire. The satire deflates ego. Ego that invents rituals to waste time and erode trust, and the analysis offers practical ways to think and act. Both honour the intelligence of working professionals and focus on what truly improves outcomes: intent, alignment, trade-offs, cadence, and evidence.
Join me, dear reader, when your interest is in nuanced take on leadership. Explore my portfolio, read the books, and subscribe to the newsletter to be part of the ongoing conversation.
