My craft is in the application of best-practice policy development frameworks based on Law and Economics (economic analysis of the law) to the analysis of public policy, microeconomic and cross-systems issues. My passion is in augmenting these established approaches with other perspectives (such as cybernetics, behavioural insights, complexity science, systems and design thinking) to enrich understandings and to develop more innovative, resilient, inclusive, sustainable and viable solutions.
