Simon founded WE GO FROM—HERE, after witnessing a recurring challenge in modern organizations: a misalignment between people development and organizational systems. Time and time again, Simon saw well-intentioned leaders—people truly passionate about growth and change—get stuck in outdated structures. He watched as organizations either invested heavily in upgrading their systems but neglected their people, or poured resources into developing individual talent without creating the systems necessary for those individuals to thrive.

The frustration was noticeable. Talented leaders who’d gone through coaching programs would often leave their organizations, feeling held back by old-fashioned systems that no longer served their vision. Meanwhile, progressive organizations that were evolving their operating systems would struggle because they hadn't invested in cultivating the leadership behaviours needed to truly ignite that transformation.

It was this gap—the disconnect between personal growth and organizational evolution—that inspired Simon to create WE GO FROM—HERE. Simon’s deep belief, shaped by his own experiences and observations, is that real transformation is both an individual and collective journey. He understood that leaders and teams must grow in tandem with the structures that surround them. For organizations to truly thrive, both their people and systems must evolve in sync.

Through WE GO FROM—HERE, Simon seeks to unlock leaders’ potential, build cohesive teams, and create systems that foster continuous development and innovation. His mission is to ensure that no leader feels trapped by an outdated system and no organization loses talent due to lack of investment in people. Simon’s journey and vision for WE GO FROM—HERE, stem from a lived experience—one where true, lasting transformation only happens when leaders and systems are aligned.
