I bring a unique blend of skills, experience, qualifications and current relevance as a corporate facilitator to any strategic planning, leadership development and/or operational management exercise. I provide a unique vantage point, flexibility and learning agility through:

being a Chartered Accountant with extensive business and professional services consulting and management experience, particularly my 26 years experience with Price Waterhouse/PricewaterhouseCoopers, including 4 years as National Operations Director
my accreditations in various personality, behavioural, leadership and coaching assessments and experience, particularly my 5 years career transition consulting with DBM Australia (purchased by Lee Hecht Harrison in 2011);
my CEO mentoring and facilitation of SME business owners and leaders through The Executive Connection (TEC);
my significant range of presentations and interviews on various business and career topics
my social media and technological expertise; and
my extensive strategic and operational facilitation experience with leadership teams of multinational and local corporate teams, professional membership associations and Australian owned professional services firms.

Recent facilitation exercises that I have conducted are below and references can be provided upon request.
