Ways to Wealth EP56: Strategic Leadership Beyond the Day-to-Day, with Greg Alnutt

In this episode of the Ways to Wealth Podcast, Charlie is joined by Greg Alnutt!Greg is a partner at Pivot & Pace, a strategic consulting firm that helps medium-sized New Zealand businesses navigate growth, succession, and long-term value creation. With 20 years of military service and six operational tours, including in Afghanistan, Greg blends leadership experience with commercial strategy in what he calls a “pracademic” approach.The conversation explores Greg’s transition from the military to public sector roles and eventually into business consulting. He shares insights on leading through complexity, the discipline needed to build sustainable companies, and how to develop strategy when the full picture isn’t clear—a principle borrowed from the military’s "fog of war" doctrine.Greg also unpacks common challenges in intergenerational business transitions, including succession planning and wealth transfer without forcing liquidity events. He introduces a useful metaphor for strategic thinking, urging leaders to shift between "the scrum," "the coach’s box," and the "satellite view" to maintain long-term clarity while staying grounded in execution.This episode is ideal for owners, operators, and leaders of growing businesses who want to lead with intention and create enduring value.Check out Pivot & Pace here: www.pivot-pace.comWatch all episodes of the Ways to Wealth Podcast here: www.eccuity.com/podcasts#WaysToWealth #StrategicLeadership #BusinessConsulting #IntergenerationalWealth #SuccessionPlanning #MilitaryToBusiness #StartUps #LeadershipDevelopment #BusinessGrowth #IntentionalWealth
