I have over 20 years' experience consulting and providing change management services in business improvement, governance and risk management, systems and assurance. My experience in facilitating change includes corporate, SMEs', and family companies - in private, Not for Profit and public sectors. I successfully deliver solutions in accordance with the current and future needs of the business. I bring to your business a passion for business excellence, a desire to ‘make a difference’, a belief in personal and team development, and a breadth of knowledge and expertise in leading and developing high performing, technical teams.With increased clarity, alignment of process and practice, and use of appropriate risk and development processes: clients consistently note improved confidence, performance, efficiencies in operation and delivery, and improved risk profiles - while also supporting compliance requirements. Some projects I have led include strategic and operational improvement / change projects within a large government agency, including associate key supply chain industries. I also led the development and engagement of risk management for a health-based Not for Profit business that increased competency in risk for sustained project and business outcomes, and improved understanding of quality principles in the business management cycle.I also support and coach team members in their personal and professional development journeys.
