I am a Responsible Business / Sustainability leader - passionate and skilled at delivering win-win outcomes for business and society to drive high business growth. I have worked as a Non-Executive Director, Advisor, Lecturer, and Consultant as well as in senior leadership roles with high-profile organizations including the International Finance Corporation, World Bank, Shell International, and the Global Energy Transition.I bring a wealth of global experience in crafting and implementing policy and advocacy, sustainability, and economic development strategies. I excel at translating complex, strategic problems into focused priorities with tangible impacts. I have lived and worked in 40+ countries, including both OECD and emerging markets in Asia and Africa which has enabled me to develop solutions that meet societal, governmental, and business expectations. I excel at tackling challenging problems and driving complex projects, even in ambiguous situations. Throughout my career, I've built trust and credibility by leveraging thought leadership and uniting matrixed teams and stakeholders towards common goals. I’m able to influence stakeholders, secure crucial project funding and am known for my leadership skills to motivate teams to deliver projects with high impact, business and societal value. My success is rooted in my skills and experience in the following areas:- Sustainability: Proven track record of advising senior leaders and governments with deep experience of working with investors, ESG raters, and policy makers. At Shell, my team revamped high risk supply chains to mitigate risk whilst retaining business and societal value. - Global Public Policy and Advocacy: Extensive experience in leading Policy and Advocacy across multiple geographic regions, addressing global policy and regulatory challenges in responsible business (human rights, economic development, local content, just transition). - Stakeholder Engagement / International Relationship Management: Adept at building trust with diverse stakeholders to navigate ambiguity and advise on risk and opportunity strategies in both emerging and developed economies.- Global Leadership: Extensive global corporate and government experience combined with enhanced cultural awareness from living and working in Asia, Africa, Europe, and the US.Looking ahead, I'm deeply interested in how the ethics which underpin the pace of technological advances in automation and AI will be regulated and how they will impact business and society.
