I am a global executive who brings deep expertise in finance, operations, and technology to deliver results at scale. As a successful entrepreneur and Global Fortune 500 divisional CEO, I have led software and technology-enabled service companies to achieve market leadership.I co-founded RiseSmart in 2007 - a VC-backed, innovative HR services company that offers a suite of outplacement, coaching, reskilling, and career mobility solutions in 90+ countries. We leveraged technology and customer experience as key differentiators to outperform well-established competitors. Working with our talented team, we shaped and executed the company’s vision to expand our international footprint and broaden our product portfolio to position the company for explosive growth. After RiseSmart was acquired by Randstad in 2015, I steered the business as CEO through periods of record growth and market uncertainty, including the Covid-19 pandemic, while maintaining a strong focus on culture and people. During my tenure, RiseSmart was recognized as the industry’s global leader in “Vision and Capability” by Everest Group and consistently named a “best place to work”.My focus areas include: ► Global Leadership: Building and leading high-performing and multi-national teams.► Growth Strategy: Driving consistent growth, enabling a company to realize its long-term goals and achieve market leadership.► Technology & Innovation: Partnering closely with engineering, product, and other teams to develop industry-leading solutions.► Operational Excellence: Operating with the speed of a successful entrepreneur and the discipline of a seasoned executive to design processes and solutions that deliver strong operational and commercial results.► Organizational Culture: Cultivating a strong culture by building teams and companies the right way, taking a people-first approach to create an award-winning workplace with highly engaged, satisfied, and collaborative employees.
