The experience behind the work
From government to the executive table.
I started in public policy and government, then worked in industry associations and led regulatory and government affairs at EnerNOC, a then Nasdaq-listed energy technology business.
I learned the value of relationships, judgement and understanding what sits behind a stakeholder’s position. I also learned how difficult it can be to explain that work in the language a business uses to make decisions.
At Boston Consulting Group in Perth, I worked on strategy, operating models and implementation across energy and resources. As a Principal, I learned to connect business objectives to the work, responsibilities and measures needed to deliver them.
I founded Transformation Partners to bring those experiences together. Today I work with Corporate Affairs leaders who need to make their contribution visible and build a function that can deliver it consistently.
How I work
You work directly with me.
We start with the situation you face, agree a useful piece of work and involve your team in putting it into practice. I’m based in Perth and work with leaders across Australia.
My depth is in mining, energy and resources. I also work with other organisations facing complex stakeholder questions, where the problem and experience fit.
