• Strategy & AI Advisor Helping New Zealand Leadership Teams Grow with Clarity.

    Hi, I’m Brett Roberts. I help SME and mid-market leadership teams align customer value, product focus and strategy so they can grow profitably and compete with confidence.

    I'm a former Microsoft executive and digital agency CEO who has led $20m business units, driven 50% revenue growth and secured enterprise digital contracts exceeding $250k.

    Today I work as a strategy advisor, technology consultant and keynote speaker across New Zealand.

    Strategy Advisory for Founders & Executive Teams

    Many organisations struggle not because they lack ideas, but because their strategy, product and customer value are misaligned. As a strategy advisor in New Zealand, I work directly with founders and leadership teams through focused advisory engagements and structured strategy workshops. Together, we clarify:

    • Where to compete
    • Which customer segments to prioritise
    • How to strengthen product-market fit
    • How to refine pricing and positioning
    • Where to focus innovation and investment
    • How to align the operating model with strategic intent

    The objective is straightforward: clear choices, disciplined focus and commercially grounded execution. The result is sharper positioning, stronger differentiation and more sustainable growth.

    AI is reshaping competition. The real challenge is deciding where it creates meaningful business value.

    As an AI strategy consultant, I help organisations:

    • Identify high-impact AI opportunities
    • Align AI initiatives with strategic goals
    • Redesign products and services for competitive advantage
    • Assess risk, governance and capability requirements

    Technology should improve revenue, margin or customer experience. If it doesn’t, it’s distraction.
