About Peter Kappus

I help teams in world-leading organisations to work better together, delivering outstanding outcomes, and having more fun while they do it.

Peter is passionate about helping organisations to deliver better. For over 20 years, he’s been an engineer, coach, trainer, and mentor helping teams in the world’s leading organisations to find clarity and inspiration, deliver outstanding results and enjoy the journey along the way. Using transformative lean & agile delivery methods, powerful goal-science frameworks like Objectives & Key Results, and ultra-inclusive facilitation tools like Liberating Structures, he’s worked across diverse industries such as finance, software, government, media, publishing, bio-tech, advertising and more.

Clients include the UK Government, Doctors Without Borders (MSF), Wikimedia Foundation, Société Générale Corporate & Investment Banking, BNP Paribas, Credit Suisse, Novartis, multiple private asset managers, Genomics England, Exscientia, the Automobile Association, and countless start-ups and scale-ups.

Drawing from the teachings of Chris Argyris, Peter Senge, Christina Wodtke, John Doerr, Ajahn Sumedho, Bessel Van Der Kolk, John Katzenbach, Jez Humble, Nicole Forsgren, Gene Kim, Jon Smart, and others, I use lean/agile practices, ultra-inclusive facilitation techniques (like Liberating Structures), and powerful goal setting frameworks (like Objectives & Key Results – OKRs) to help teams consistently challenge the status quo and redefine their peak performance.

Born in London, raised in St. Louis MO, shaped in Boulder, Brooklyn, Seattle, and now back in London, I’ve been priviledged to help build a successful digital agency, a research, analytics, trading, and reporting platform, a more digital UK Government and a better BBC.

I’ve been a web developer, a project, programme, portfolio manager, flat-pack furniture-assembler, linux systems administrator, CTO, and coach. Along the way, I’ve learned to value diverse perspectives, experimentation, and strong relationships.

I’ve also been known to make art and improvise on the piano. I’d love to know what you’re working on.
