Ricki Taiaroa is a Co-Founder, Director, Tech & Ops guy. Colleagues describe them as "Sometimes you read someone's CV and think, wow, that's impressive..... this was certainly the case for Ricki Taiaroa, but more importantly, Ricki is so much more than what you read. Ricki combines a strong commercial foundation; a strategic and analytical mind with a relentless pursuit to deliver outstanding solutions. As Business Manager of the Telstra Media portfolio, Ricki oversaw the development of the strategy and demonstrated the critical role that media and content would play in the entertainment and mobile businesses. I had the privilege of working with Ricki a second time at Foxtel, where after successfully launching Presto, Ricki joined Foxtel as Director of Video Products and was instrumental in the creation and launch of FoxtelNow. On top of his commercial accomplishments, Ricki is an exceptional team player and brings together key stakeholders to create and environment where people bring their best to the table. Further, he is an entrepreneur of note and has created several start-ups .... always with the customer at the centre. I'd work with Ricki again in a heartbeat!" and "Ricki is an outstanding Product Strategy Consultant and one of the best I have ever worked with. In the project we worked on in Commonwealth Bank, he was a leader in the Design Thinking product development process and we key in uncovering several key insights which clarified the target personas and value proposition. He continually demonstrated great customer empathy, commercial acumen, organisational awareness, initiative and a drive to get things done. I would not hesitate in recommending Ricki to any organisation. "
