John Cunningham
John Cunningham is a strategic adviser and leader with extensive experience working at the intersection of technology, commercial strategy, organisational relationships and complex delivery. His career has involved situations where there isn't a simple answer: different organisations, competing priorities, powerful stakeholders, technology, commercial pressures and people trying to make sense of change.

Experience & Research
The intersection of research and practical leadership experience.
​
John has an MBA and has just finalised his Doctoral of Professional Studies thesis investigating human behaviour in professional settings.
My approach is shaped by years of working with complex organisations and by my doctoral research into how people experience and respond to organisational change. This research has led me towards a wider question: why do intelligent, experienced people sometimes respond to apparently rational decisions in ways that seem difficult to understand? It suggests that behaviour often makes considerably more sense when viewed in context.
