We met as City bankers, but our real passion is working out how people and organisations tick.

During our careers, we have experienced a wide range of corporate cultures, from the very good to the very bad.  We have always been fascinated by the manner in which culture influences the way people behave at work, and how this in turn has a huge impact on results. 

We were interested enough to pursue this further while we continued with our full time careers.  We went and studied.  Richard trained as a counsellor on the side, Anthony spent his weekends qualifying as a Clinical Hypnotherapist and Andrew earned a post-graduate degree in Industrial Relations.  This has given us a good understanding of how we can help people to do a better job of navigating their environment at work, and how the work environment can help individuals to perform better.

The pandemic gave us the opportunity to get together and to found Aletheian Advisors – a firm dedicated to helping companies to improve their results by improving their institutional character and culture. 

Our approach is practical and very much “bottom up” – based around our knowledge of how individuals react to their environment and informed by over 100 years of combined commercial experience.  It’s also driven by our determination to make our services accessible to all companies, whether you decide to take the ideas and techniques on this website and apply them yourself or you decide to invest in engaging Aletheian to help with that process.
