SALES AND OPERATIONS LEADER * TURNAROUND SPECIALIST * NON-EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

I specialise in transforming sales and business operations, and I am not afraid to encourage executives and operational teams to explore outside their comfort bubble. Significant change requires non-conformity, bold planning and fearless execution. Give me a mandate for transformative change, and I will deliver a successful outcome based on strategic alignment, risk analysis, pragmatic vision, and personal coaching and mentoring. Everybody knows that insanity is repeating the same mistakes and expecting different results. However, knowing something isn’t the same as taking action. I can help you take action.
