Mike Kalms Email & Phone Number

Mike has 30 years of experience in business and government, spanning the globe. He has 10 years in Government, then worked to industry for 10 years, then 10 years as a partner in KPMG's consulting business, solving the toughest national security problems. Mike is also a proud Army Reservist, serving 32 years contributing to national security.Now its time to apply this experience to Complex Program Turnaround. Too often we have found the complexity of defence and national security programs leave leaders scrambling to understand status, cause and remediation options. Time to change that. Urgently.When a program is in need of turnaround it must happen fast. Rather than months and years of inquiry, time and material cost blowouts, independence concerns, land-and-expand tactics and endless delays; I will build a team that delivers evidenced remediation options in weeks, at a fixed price based on outcomes, guaranteed not to linger longer, genuinely Australian and without interests peppered across Government limiting independence. And most importantly - at speed. We keep saying 'warning times are extinguished'. Yet we take months and years to fix failing programs. Lets change that together, with AI-enabled methods, a mindset of urgency and a focus on deployed change - not voluminous impenetrable report generation. Minister's will welcome a different approach.

Listed skills include Program Management, Team Leadership, Strategy, Training, and 36 others.
