Your Blueprint for Predictable Business Growth.

What is Growth Engineering Lab?

Is your business growth stalled? Are you constantly battling inefficiency and putting out fires instead of focusing on strategy? There’s a more structured, predictable path to building a successful, scalable company.

Welcome to Growth Engineering Lab, started in 2025 by me, Nigel. With a background spanning nearly 30 years in engineering, working with some of the worlds leading Engineering companies and over a decade successfully leading my own firm, I apply proven engineering principles to solve common business challenges.

Why engineering? Because it works. 

(1) Look at the data – a huge percentage of top-performing global CEOs have engineering backgrounds. 

(2) The core skills demanded by engineering – rigorous analysis, systems thinking, data-driven problem solving – are incredibly effective for navigating business complexity. 

(3) Many cutting-edge business strategies actually have their roots in established engineering concepts.

Growth Engineering Lab translates these powerful, often overlooked, engineering strategies into practical, actionable advice for SME owners and leaders. We cover Systems Thinking, process optimization (SOPs, Kaizen), bottleneck analysis (Theory of Constraints), risk assessment, data utilisation, and more – all designed to help you build a more efficient, resilient, and profitable business without the complexity of a formal engineering degree.
