I'm offering
I am a result-driven and out-of-the box thinking international CIO and Technology Executive with a solid track record in digital/agile transformation, change management and leadership. I focus on creating value for companies by improving revenue and deliver on cost optimization throughout an entire company using technology as a driver.
In leading technology positions I help companies achieve their strategic business goals by supporting and driving digital transformation while ensuring a stable IT operation and continuous cost optimization. I believe a sound balance of technology, people and business knowledge is key to improving business performance and growth. I especially value the interaction with stakeholders at all levels from a manufacturing floor to board rooms. Digital transformation is equal parts business and people/culture; this is what often makes the differences between success and failure.
I have 20+ years of international experience with a track record of delivering results by having high ambitions together with my team and through enabling and leading technologies to move the business forward every day step by step. It’s about making a positive change even under difficult circumstances where the future may be uncertain.
Strengths: Digital & Agile Transformation, Innovation, Value creation, Turn-around, Strategy, organizational and people development, IT Governance, Leadership, Business processes and alignment, cost optimization, Media, Services & Technology Industries.
