Speaking
Speaking is one way I work with business leaders — not the centre of what I do. Most of my time is direct involvement inside substantial businesses.
In conference and live formats: bring me the problem. I will work through it in the room. No manufactured curriculum.
Private discussions and working sessions
I work with owners, CEOs, chairmen, boards and leadership teams in private settings — when an important commercial decision or business problem needs to be examined honestly.
The value is in changing how people understand their circumstances, think about the business and approach significant decisions. It is not motivation, personal development or executive coaching.
A session can stand on its own. It can also be an introduction to deeper commercial work when that makes sense.

The Art of Gaslighting
Nathan’s work on human behaviour includes The Art of Gaslighting, a book that challenges the accepted definition of gaslighting and proposes a different explanation for how the manipulation works.
That work informs his thinking about perception, influence, identity, power and why intelligent people can behave irrationally when fear becomes part of the way they interpret reality.
