Dr Therese Flapper Ftse Email & Phone Number

I guide people on win-win paths to deliver best for community infrastructure outcomes.I balance IQ with EQ to bring about successful paths forward in complex relationships across key stakeholders. This is founded on substantial technical and practical experience bringing infrastructure to life from policy and planning, through to procurement and delivery, across the full asset value chain. I have a depth and breadth of experience across the built environment including its inter-connectedness (circular), the broadest objectives (sustainability and community health) and the details (regulatory to design). At Board level I drive innovation, future-thinking and purposeful performance. I do that, having led significant multi-disciplinary project teams, transformed profit centres, delivered infrastructure projects and driven R&D portfolios. As a life-long learner, I adopt digital technologies, AI and ESG platforms. I operate best in collaborative collegiate Board settings where I act with purpose and apply adaptive thinking.I advocate for STE'A'M - putting the Arts in STEM for humanities sake, as well as advancing the participation of women at all levels.
