When the usual playbook runs out, I step in — and drive it to a measurable shift. In weeks. Then I leave.

01When I get called
What I do

When I get called

Owners CEO C-level Division heads

I come in from the outside — your traditions, relationships and internal rules don’t hold me. I do what your own people can’t.

01

Expansion

Enter a new region or push out a competitor. Fast.

02

Unpopular change

The reform they’re afraid to start because of the resistance.

03

Stalled project

Everything’s ready, nothing moves. I’ll find what’s holding it.

04

Path to venture

Take it to money: model, pitch, first check.

05

0 → major league

From nobody to a name taken seriously.

02Statement
The idea that could change the world

Some projects I take on not because they’ll pay

But because I can’t walk past them

If it changes the world for the better, I put in everything I have.

03Cases
Case 01 — Economics

A pennies quarter turned seven-figure

×35
17–23K
700K
quarterly distribution, one quarter, no change in the market
Situation

The principal was closing the agency scheme — three months for everything. The job wasn't to survive it, but to come out stronger.

Solution

Per-second billing, a rebuilt tariff structure, a portfolio cleared of loss-making clients, tighter losses, faster invoicing.

Result

Next quarter — 700K distributed to owners, up from 17–23K. Done, and out.

When the economics don't add up, the problem isn't the market — it's the structure. A project earning less than it should isn't fine-tuned. It's rebuilt.

Case 02 — Change

Budget cuts they accepted instead of sabotaging

Vladimir Savvon in a negotiation
No revolt
a painful decision — accepted, without sabotage
Situation

A regional culture authority had to push through budget cuts. Everywhere else the same cuts had turned into a fight — sabotage, stalling, loss of control.

Solution

Instead of administrative pressure — a facilitated strategic session built on a single idea I seeded into their thinking. The cut became their own logic rather than an order.

Result

The cuts went through with understanding and without the expected resistance. The new frame became their internal language of change.

In painful change you don't change people's behaviour — you change the frame they see it through. Then resistance turns into participation.

Case 03 — Technology

From an “unsolvable” hypothesis to a project funds and clinics take seriously

0%Model accuracy100%
0 → 80% 3,000 annotated objects
3 products at MVP
letters of interest from major clinics; due diligence with three international funds
Situation

Detecting small objects on CT scans the human eye can't see was considered technically unsolvable. At the start — no money, no team, nothing to touch.

Solution

Built the team, set the research trajectory, translated the hypothesis into product language, built the financial model, unit economics, pitch and negotiation track.

Result

3 products at MVP, a QMS for engineering, an international professional community.

Between an interesting technology and a project people invest in lies a separate build. That build is what I do.

04OTHER CASES

Other cases

Details on request

A monopolist's unlawful refusal — broken

open

Put the monopolist face to face with the regulator. The law they hid behind didn't exist — the result was a right no one else on the market had.

A client base — without a single shot

open

Three days of negotiation with the owner. Took the base on a gentleman's agreement; force wasn't an option.

90% in a month

open

Took down the region's No. 1 agent and doubled my own volume. Then repeated it in another city.

From rivalry to alliance

open

Instead of a war with the competitor — one shared machine. ~70% of the market in six months.

~40 people

open

Took them through a mindset-transformation program. Among the graduates — a National Geographic contract and the country's top-rated host.

… and more

open

Briefs that stay verbal. The rest in a conversation.

05EXPERTISE

There are no unsolvable problems. What matters is how you look — and who’s beside you.

One person instead of five functions

I get called when a task doesn’t fit any single profession. Not a financier, not a marketer, not a product manager — you need one person who holds all of it at once and owns the result.

I keep in focus: commerce, unit economics, regulation, communications, AI-based delivery — and a sense of art, which usually isn’t on that list. The unsolvable almost always hides where these layers meet.

I read any system through its structure. Telecom, medicine, culture, government: different vocabulary, similar laws.

I’ve sat in every one of these chairs. Stayed in none
