At Work Untangled, we partner with business leaders facing the kind of team and workforce challenges that directly impact an organization’s ability to perform, grow, and adapt.

Our work is grounded in one simple truth:

Your people are the key to your performance

Our team

Tom Watts

CEO & FOUNDER

  • MBA
  • Bachelor of Management
  • Bachelor of Psychology
  • Certified Executive Coach
  • Certified Talent Management Practitioner (CTMP)

Tom has spent his career working alongside business leaders who are tired of losing their best people to preventable workplace problems. Not in boardrooms theorizing about culture, but inside the real day-to-day friction of organizations that are growing, changing, or under pressure.

His background spans organizational strategy and execution, people systems and structures, total rewards, talent management, employee relations, labour relations, change management, performance management, conflict resolution, and workplace investigations. But more than any credential, what Tom brings is the ability to identify what is actually happening inside your organization and design a path forward that your people will actually follow.

In previous roles Tom provided executive and senior leadership across international, national, corporate, and field-level environments, in both union and non-union settings. He has worked with leaders who thought they had tried everything. Most of the time, they just hadn’t had a straight conversation about the real problem yet.

What makes us different

Whether your team is stuck, siloed, or simply underperforming, we bring clarity and connection where it’s needed most, helping leaders reduce costs, boost productivity, and build stronger organizational culture.

01

We connect people to processes.

Real alignment doesn’t happen on paper. It happens in relationships and daily actions. We design systems that your people embrace rather than endure.

02

We make strategy executable.

Ideas that don’t become action are just overhead. We help you turn strategy into the specific systems and behaviors that move the needle on your bottom line.

03

We link culture to performance.

Your culture isn’t separate from your results. It drives them. We help you build one that attracts great people and makes them want to stay and contribute.

Ready to connect people, process, and purpose?

If your leadership team is stuck, let’s have a direct conversation about what’s actually going on and what’s really possible. No pitch. No jargon. Just honest advice.
