Bringing strategy into action with a systematic approach

About me

I draw upon over 20 years of consulting and leadership experience in enabling and empowering people and teams, helping various kinds of local and global organisations succeed. I orchestrate change and drive business impact through effective operationalisation of strategy and fostering a healthy organisational culture.

My core expertise lies in project and people leadership, with a strong emphasis on participatory methods. I naturally navigate between strategic and pragmatic aspects of organisational development and understand the tangible and more abstract elements of what makes people want to commit to the desired change.

I lead with purpose to inspire and instil strong dedication to fostering a fertile ground for innovation. I thrive in solving complex problems, building and cultivating meaningful connections, and creating a trust-based and transparent environment that empowers individuals and autonomy. I successfully translate strategic objectives into actionable plans that can be clearly and efficiently carried out across all levels of the organisation and operational processes.

My values drive the way I work

Honesty

Being authentic and honest to oneself and others is the only way to build trust, psychologically safe environments, and a sense of belonging.

Connection

We exist in relation to others. I believe in caring and being compassionate. I choose to believe that people have good intentions, I try to listen and ask questions to understand.

Collaboration

I believe in the power of bringing people together. Creating shared understanding, diverse thinking and challenging each other fuels success.
