With extensive participation in executive teams as a member of the Executive Community (reporting to CEO) company boards, risk and order committees, regulatory bodies, and functional management, I have wrestled with the global challenges faced by organisations, especially digital transformation. I have a track record of defining, building and optimising ICT Organisations, with twelve years of C-level executive experience and an in-depth understanding of the business value of IT. Beyond that, I have played a significant role in the digital and e-business arena and created technology strategies for numerous international territories.
