Nigel Pantling
Strategic Advice for Chief Executives
-
Nigel is adept at assessing the psychology of chief executives and the mood of their boards and at building confidence and trust. Very few advisers have the confidence to tell a chief executive the truth. Nigel is an exception in that regard.

Nigel has helped me for many years through some extremely challenging situations. His counsel, discretion and friendship have been invaluable.
Julian Enoizi
CEO Pool Re
Being chief executive is a lonely business, with heavy responsibilities and conflicting calls on your attention. Many of the issues you deal with are outside your control and some are outside your experience.
Shareholders and board colleagues are watching you closely and expecting you to deliver on time, every time. You can feel that there is nobody to advise you who does not have an axe to grind.
Nigel understands all this. Over the last 25 years he has worked one-to one with more than 50 chief executives who have wanted his confidential, objective and impartial strategic advice.
He knows the value of calm, reflective assistance when things get tricky, and he enjoys helping chief executives facing testing times to emerge as successful.

Nigel’s greatest skill is to ask the right questions when discussing issues ranging from people management to corporate strategy, mergers and acquisitions and interaction with the Board. I thoroughly recommend Nigel to any CEO who wishes to have a high quality, independent sounding-board.
