Project leadership.

Ownership. Measurement. Sustainability.

Boyd & Associates is a collective of leaders who deliver challenging projects. We aren’t a traditional consultancy or advisory firm, we become part of your team and make things happen, rather than telling you what you should do.

We support our clients at every stage of their journey, from delivering value from a recent acquisition to planning the next deal. We bridge the gap between strategy and implementation where great ideas fall down.

project leadership

/ˈprɒdʒɛkt ˈliːdəʃɪp/ noun

Definition: The practice of taking full ownership of a project’s strategy, execution, and outcomes—going beyond planning and reporting to drive real, measurable, and sustainable change. Project leadership combines strategic thinking, decision-making authority, and hands-on delivery, often in complex or high-stakes environments.

Example usage: “We don’t just need project management—we need project leadership to challenge assumptions, align stakeholders, and deliver results that last.”

The world is full of project managers who track tasks, report status, and follow instructions. But when businesses need true leadership—people who take ownership, drive change, and ensure delivery—they struggle to find the right talent.

Boyd & Associates was built to change that. We are a collective of independent project leaders who don’t just manage projects—we lead them. We connect businesses and organisations with the people they need.

Great project leadership isn’t simply about managing tasks—it’s about ownership, adaptability, and delivering real results. It’s about clarity of goals that can be measured. And results that are sustainable.

We excel at leading and delivering complex projects. Through insight and leadership, we challenge outdated views on project management—publishing real-world insights, hosting industry discussions, and shaping the future of project leadership.
