    Jan 2012 - Jan 2017 (5 years 1 month)
    Initially Director of Operations for ASPAC and EMEA, I later added the US and LATAM to become the global leader of the business division.

  • M
    Civil Design Engineer
    Manukau City
    Jan 1984 - Jan 1986 (2 years 1 month)
    I credit engineering as underpinning everything else that I have done in life. The analytical problem-solving, the mathematical / technical aspect, people / project management ability and environmental awareness (physical, financial, cultural) needed to design functional public infrastructure is unique and was highly transferrable into other domains. As a Junior Civil Engineer, I was engaged in highway reconstructions, carpark construction, urban subdivision construction and stormwater network modelling.

In my Impact Lab, I explored how organizations might rapidly reskill and redeploy parts of an outmoded workforce or ramp up quickly to meet demand for specific skills. I developed a framework to operate in-house SIM teams for accelerated learning.
