We aim to be the "go to" institution for executive education and development.With the benefit of significant experience gained by being a “thought partner” to a great number of businesses across a variety of sectors, I can quickly understand where opportunities exist for businesses to benefit from cutting-edge, multi-disciplinary research, education and knowledge-exchange that the Strathclyde Business School can provide. We also tailor bespoke programmes to meet the individual and specific needs of a business and its leadership.In conjunction with developing professional and trusting relationships with individuals and businesses, by successfully preparing and presenting complex lending applications to UK Credit Committee, an in-depth understanding of the micro and macro environment was crucial. This expertise helps me identify, recommend and bespoke Exec Ed programmes that will maximise outcomes.I aim to increase footprint, revenue and contribution while enhancing quality and reputation of the University of Strathclyde and our partners. As one would expect from a world class institution, our client base comprises multi-nationals, UK corporates and high potential SMEs, family businesses, social enterprises, NGO’s, public and 3rd Sector organisations with whom we help develop the strategic leadership needed to build a prosperous, fairer and more inclusive society.Please get in touch for an informal chat.Specialities:Funding readiness, relationship management, financial and commercial analysis, fundraising, networking, business development, strategy planning and implementation.Interests:Ambassador Causeway: Ireland Scotland Business ExchangeMember - Rubicon Founders GroupMentor - MCR Pathways
