I was born and educated in South Africa and relocated to the UK in 1997. I'm passionate about rugby and golf, and I’ve had the opportunity to travel extensively, enjoying diverse cultures and cuisines.I thrive on both physical and mental challenges, and to me, work is more than just a job! I’m always questioning the status quo, driven by my father’s belief that nothing is impossible with the right amount of effort. I occasionally volunteer, sharing my experiences for social good and in technology.Over my career, I’ve worked across various roles and industries, including engineering, sales, software development, consulting, financial services, project management, and business strategy. These experiences have taught me valuable lessons:I successfully transformed a professional services business from a cost centre into a revenue-generating unit. * I put the customer at the centre of all that I do. * I work closely with teams, sharing strategies and encouraging feedback. * I make data-driven decisions, but my instincts propel progress. I am skilled at aligning, leading, and growing world-class project and consulting teams of 10-50 people. * Winning as a team brings me great joy. * I take full responsibility for outcomes. * I bridge the gap between technology and leadership. * I craft compelling stories that inspire action.I am committed to continuous learning and self-improvement. * I am always evolving, never satisfied with the status quo. * I stay calm under pressure. * I prioritise thoughtful, high-impact decisions.I am constantly observing how people interact and meet their needs. At the heart of any change are individuals with their fears and concerns. When working on disruptive business models, I focus on creating positive impacts for both people and organisations.Soft Skills: Leadership, Problem-solving, Emotional Intelligence, Public Speaking, Confidence, Professionalism, Organisation, Teamwork, Communication, Ethics.Hard Skills: Technological literacy, Data analysis, Business analysis, Microsoft 365 (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Visio, Project), Project management (managing timelines, milestones, resource allocation, risk management strategies, reporting), and Regulatory requirements.
