Speaker Bio

I am a senior IT Executive with 20+ years of experience and a solid track record of accelerating company growth by combining emerging technologies, business process optimisation and shared services always focused on business value creation and strategic partnership.

I strongly believe in the power of cultivating a collaborative team culture focused on delivering practical business results: profitable revenue, satisfied customers and engaged employees and business partners. Over the years, I have been recognised for leading strategic technology innovation to grow the top and bottom line of the organisations I have worked for.

Throughout my career, I have always been worried about the legacy we are leaving behind and making sure that all my actions (and the companies I have worked with) acted with purpose and in alignment with my personal values. Working with communities, developing them, sharing our knowledge and assets, sharing our vision and bringing them on our journey for me has always been key. In Heineken, we have a clear and empowering strategy that supports this purposes while driving consistent value creation.
