I was responsible for driving breakthrough ideas, products and solutions that continually improved and challenged existing business strategy in order to serve the organisation's social change mission in a world of rapid change. We immediately reignited the public engagement of the organisation through refocusing its strategy on content marketing, built and launched the organisation's new content-led website within 100 days, rapidly turned around a decade-long decline in online traffic and revenue (doubling both baselines within 2 months), and led a major redesign of the organisation's operating model.I resigned from World Vision after eight great years to pursue the dream of starting my own innovation and values-based company.

We were also first responders handling logistics in global humanitarian emergency situations, and I was the point-of-coordination for the global supply chain into natural disasters in the Asia-Pacific region for international donors, agencies and corporations. I also served on the global executive group for non-cash resourcing reporting directly to the global CEO. Show less

I was a multi-purpose Swiss Army Knife in an internal start-up environment, alternatively helping to support strategy development, write up reports on climate change projects, lead a transformation project, carry out business development, consult on property strategy, make coffee etc. As part of these roles I helped introduce the first 'strategy-on-a-page' at World Vision, first introduced the concept of 'Skunkworks' to the executive, and was nominated for an annual staff award by the rest of the team for my leadership in the transformation project.
