Successful change requires leadership alignment on both the strategic issues and the solutions to address them. I work with the executive team to support setting the direction for change by helping to identify the key issues, developing options for response and formulating implementation plans appropriate to the organisation’s capability and culture.
A business strategist with two decades of experience working with executive teams and boards, I have a track record of developing and gaining support for both corporate and business unit strategies. I believe that strategy development should be supported by a robust market understanding, as well as knowledge of a firm’s capabilities and risk appetite.
The organisation of a firm must support strategy implementation and can itself be a source of competitive advantage. I am an experienced organisation architect and change manager. My experience has been developed over many years working with multi-nationals, individual business units and department level teams, both as a consultant and as part of management teams.
All businesses have the innate potential to achieve significant improvements in performance. I support management teams to develop their own improvement approach drawing on relevant, well-established tools and methodologies. This requires an integrated approach involving leadership, culture development and performance improvement methods appropriate to “how we work here.”
Experience gained over 27 years in a range of sectors including:
