Zusammenfassung
I am a highly experienced Digital and Technology professional with a strong technology, commercial and international background. Benefiting from excellent communication skills, I am adept at communicating at both a business and technology level.
My experience includes leading large regional Digital & Technology departments for MNC's, executing enterprise-wide transformations, defining & implementing technology strategies, and building consultancy businesses.
Currently, I am based in the UK and have established a new Digital Strategy & Transformation consultancy which helps enterprises to effectively leverage and implement digital capabilities. Prior to this I was based in Singapore and was the Asia-Pacific Chief Digital & Technology Officer for CBRE. In APAC, CBRE had grown through acquisition and organically, resulting in a fragmented technology department not aligned to the business's needs. The impact was slow speed to market, revenue loss, growth of shadow IT, application proliferation & duplication, IP loss, misalignment of investments, disintermediation risk and increasing operating complexity & expenditure.
At CBRE, I lead the digital transformation and restructured the Digital & Technology organisation, with a focus on enabling the business to achieve both bottom & top-line growth.
