The go-to voice on turning adversity into opportunity.
Ron is the person organisations call when adversity needs to be turned into opportunity. As a crisis manager and transformation specialist, he has consistently delivered significant growth during the most challenging times, across a wide variety of industries.
He is best described as a “pracademic” by those who have heard him talk through management journeys — theory earned in practice rather than borrowed. Ron shares his experience as a chief executive and non-executive director, drawing on an unusual mix of roles across technology and high-performance sport.
He offers guidance and insight on the challenges and opportunities boards and leadership teams should weigh when managing their business and their people. Technology and the drive for optimal performance both need to be understood before they can be leveraged.
