Kevin Lancashire

I help established companies make platform and AI decisions they can defend in front of their board, and then steer delivery until the organisation no longer needs me.

Background: more than 15 years of platform leadership at Roche, Migros and localsearch (Swisscom Group), from group-wide digital governance to national platforms. The cases are on the proof page.

Three convictions behind every mandate

Vendor-neutral, because advice and sales don't mix

I take no vendor commissions and no agency margins. A recommendation has to hold even if it costs a supplier the contract.

Time-boxed, because dependency is a cost

Every mandate is built to end in a handover to your own people. If you still need me after it, the handover has failed.

Evidence first, because boards ask

Targets are set as indicators with a starting value before the work begins. Where the evidence is thin, I say so.

How I lead, and what keeps me going

Teams perform when people can speak candidly and take a risk without being punished for it, so that is where I start. Outside of work in Binningen, Switzerland, I recharge through running, strength training, and walks with my Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Jamie.
