Nick Pye has spent nearly two decades helping large, often complex organisations rethink how they grow. As Managing Partner at Mangrove Consulting, he works with global brands to define “Stretch” strategies, ambitious but grounded plans that align opportunity, resources, culture, and mindset. Through Mangrove’s Stretchonomics framework, his team helps leadership teams connect growth, innovation, and sustainability with a focus on performance and delivering ROI.

In this conversation, Nick shares lessons from working with major brands, launching his own ventures, and advising boards, including how consulting firms can differentiate through clarity, creativity, and a sharper link between strategy and execution.
