About | The Transformation Journey

Passionate about better transformation outcomes

Transformation done well can make a huge difference to an organisation's operation and performance, its people and customers. Unfortunately, transformation programmes have a poor track record of success... but this is wholly avoidable.

Book a meeting

Digital, business or any other flavour of transformation is like an iceberg. There's a lot that needs to be understood which isn't visible or immediately obvious - the stuff you really need to be aware of to avoid ending up with the transformation programme equivalent of the Titanic.

Gary Burke

Services are provided via my limited company to address the lack of transformation success, where programmes regularly fail to deliver the outcomes and benefits they should.

With 30+ years of experience across insurance (having started my career as a student actuary) and other regulated industries, I have successfully turned around failing programmes and delivered £multimillion transformation initiatives, implementing new technology, new operating models and ways of working.

I have guest lectured at Surrey University, speak about transformational change at conferences and am the award-winning author of A Transformation Lens, a #1 Amazon bestseller.

I have an extensive professional network and collaborate with trusted colleagues and specialist partners when needed.

My approach

My approach is one of common sense and keeping everything as simple as possible. Transformation is complex enough without trying to be too clever and over-complicate things by design!

I always have my clients' best interests at heart which is why I'll tell you what you need to know, not what you'd always like to hear! I believe in doing the right things and doing them well. This doesn't mean chasing perfection but being realistic and pragmatic to add real value.

The management of transformation & change as a discipline is sector agnostic and I advise organisations from any industry on transformation best practice, drawing on my:

Holistic approach and real-world experience of successful transformation
Focus on outcomes and the customer
Application of common sense, pragmatism and realism
Ability to join the dots, challenge the status quo and ask the stupid questions

However, I work primarily in insurance given my breadth and depth of knowledge and experience, and access to expertise from across the industry.

Book a meeting for an initial no-obligation chat about how I can help you successfully achieve your transformation ambitions.
