My journey in business began as an entrepreneur, a path that accelerated my learning and growth in ways few experience. Today, as the Director of APAC for a global marketing and events agency and the CEO of a worldwide software company, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise. I have immersed myself in the world of start-ups, international organisations, SMEs, and large enterprises, excelling in the intricacies of international expansion, commercialisation, and accelerating growth. My passion for business drives me to continuously innovate and lead, making a significant impact in every venture I undertake.
I attribute my success to my ability to train high-performing teams, building responsive businesses, leveraging my personal network, and the ability to negotiate through challenging experiences. I strongly believe that working alongside business leaders and management teams, together we can develop and execute solutions to achieve growth objectives.
My passion is solving business problems by developing and executing strategies. I work alongside business leaders and management teams, developing and executing improvement solutions that help organisations achieve their growth objectives. I help improve key fundamental business drivers, including minimising and managing risks, commercial due diligence, supply chain optimisation, and operational efficiencies and effectiveness.
Through my journey, I have identified that my areas of expertise include;
- Business strategy and performance
- Innovation and entrepreneurship
- Business development and sales
- Diagnostic business reviews
- M&A – negotiations for a commercial outcome
- Profit enhancement reviews
- Minimising and managing risks
- International expansion
- Supply chain optimisation
- Identifying and training teams
Pulling all that together, my network has allowed me to connect with the right people. Be it in building relationships to achieve growth that benefits all parties, connecting trusted contacts for the proposed potential for them to work together, or helping management teams connect the dots on solutions for roadblocks to their objectives.
