About Susanne Williams

With over 35 years of experience in international business, advisory and adventuring, Susanne is a seasoned professional. Selectively available to advise on operational resilience, presence coaching, and handholding, specializing in interoperability and logistics.Now Gartner alumni, she had previously focused on executive interim management, and has a history of grand adventuring in polar and ocean environments. During recent work, she ran a $1 million a day distribution operation, and prior to that, directed the global procurement of packaging for Johnson&Johnson - spend approx. $1.4B, also sailing an ocean going viking ship around the southern tip of Africa with Bjorn Heyerdahl. Susanne’s IT/consulting experience is rooted in her venture capital background & includes turnarounds, global SAP implementations, post-merger integrations, & enterprise transformations. Her team built Europe’s first corporate extranet in the 90s, and she drove the european start-up of a decision-support firm based on the award-winning mathematics of combinatorial optimisation. Words from the clients:“During the Ventura project I worked directly with Susanne in her role as project leader. It was a post-merger project including the implementation of SAP, combined with a major change management program. Susanne is not the stereo type of consultant. She combines a high level of professional knowledge with very well developed people skills. She is able to think out of the box on executive level & was of great help during very complex & even dangerous situations during the project. She is able to challenge even the most experienced executives to find the right solution. I can recommend Susanne to any MD or executive who needs help in looking at problems in a different way in order to find the solutions. "Martin vd Westen MD Antalis"Her intellect is particularly agile & meticulous, giving her the ability to command both the driving forces of an issue & the detailed processes necessary to move forward."#SendaiNinja #OperationalResilience #SendaiMantracker #SendaiFramework #DisasterResilience #KatastrophenSchutzSENDAI #UNDRR #FactorF #PresenceCoaching
