About the framework author - Billy Kan

The experience behind ADAPTOR, and the practical work that shaped it.

Portrait of Billy Kan

Helping people make sense of change.

Billy Kan is a delivery leader, agile coach, change practitioner, and entrepreneur with decades of experience across technology, financial services, business change, and digital delivery.

He has worked with multinational teams, including in major financial institutions, to deliver complex change and improve how people work together. That experience shapes ADAPTOR: a way to look beyond a job title, examine how demand for your work may change, and decide what to do next.

Billy and his wife Fiona founded Peach & Avo Ventures LLP after moving from Hong Kong to the UK. Their work brings together delivery leadership, agile coaching, AI and workflow improvement, and the development of practical products and ventures.

ADAPTOR is shared freely on this site. It offers a method for thinking and acting in uncertain conditions, not a prediction about any individual job or a promise of job security.
