Michael Lutterodt is a Senior Partner at Davies and co‑leads the global Operating Strategy and Transformation capability. He works across industries, supporting organisations as they design, simplify, and deliver complex change at scale.
Michael brings close to two decades of experience across financial services. His career includes time in investment banking, fintech environments, and transformation roles focused on operating models, post‑trade change, and business restructuring. This experience has shaped his perspective on the importance of discipline, clarity, and execution, particularly in highly regulated and high‑pressure environments.
At Davies, Michael focuses on operating model transformation and simplification, often in situations involving significant organisational complexity. He works closely with leadership teams to clarify accountability, align governance with strategy, and support decisive action. His experience spans Europe, North America, and the Middle East.
Michael typically supports organisations navigating large‑scale change, including restructuring, separation scenarios, regulatory‑driven transformation, and infrastructure redesign. His approach combines structure with direct challenge, helping clients move from analysis into action without undermining stability. Michael measures success through delivery quality and client confidence, focusing on whether organisations trust the team to handle their most complex work.
Beyond delivery, Michael places strong value on developing future leaders. He actively supports leadership development within the firm and sees building enduring capability as a core part of his role. For him, lasting impact comes from what organisations and teams are able to sustain long after individual programmes conclude.
