Teaching and executive education
Practical frameworks for innovation and transformation – taught from the arena, not the sidelines.
Teaching focus
Customer Innovation
I teach teams to work backwards from how people actually want to live – turning human experience into competitive advantage.
The Reinventor’s Mindset™
I teach eight frameworks for driving transformation without leaving – whether reinventing yourself or reshaping the systems around you.
Transformation
I teach the craft of moving large organisations from strategy to execution: coalition over consensus, speed over perfection.
Ashton blends deep commercial experience with an academically grounded approach to innovation and transformation.

Ashton Jones
Transformation is a learnable skill, not a personality trait. I build new things inside systems designed to stay the same – and I teach others to do the same.
