More
Having lived and worked in 8 countries, and done business in more than 50 around the globe, I have a deep understanding and appreciation of business and cultural issues in different markets. My successful track record has been built on: • Intense focus on customers and external market conditions. • An intuitive capacity to define long term vision and strategy and secure the organization’s commitment and buy in to those plans. • A talent for organizational design and change management to enable execution on the defined vision and strategy. • Ability to hire, identify, motivate, and develop diverse talent and integrate them into teams where the total is more than the sum of the parts. • Deep insight enabling using business analysis to identify root causes and develop effective plans to address them. • A deep belief in the power of simplification and clarity, across objectives, measurement, processes and tools. • A high sense of curiosity and desire to continually broaden and deepen my knowledge and experiences. • Strong capability to work with the largest global enterprise customers at executive level including structuring, negotiating, and closing very large and complex deals.
