“Rob led a team of Finance, IT, and data specialists to design and execute the data processes for moving Finance data from one system to a new system. He ensured we had processes and reports to support complete and accurate data loads. This included master data, open transactional data, and account balances. His knowledge of both Finance and SAP as well as his management skills were key.”
About
Who I Am:
A Finance and Transformation leader who believes that social value is the starting point for business value.
What I Believe:
Sustainable development requires win/win approaches that engage and collaboratively align stakeholders. Long-term equitable engagement is key to development and starts when relationships are based on trust and respect. This approach builds value for all, which can be measured as Corporate Return on Investment and as Community Social Return on Investment.
What I Do:
I support opportunities where social engagement turns potential conflict into collaboration, resulting in dignity for potentially at-risk communities.
My focus includes defining and leading transformation in individual organizations and across value chains in order to multiply potential social benefits through collaborative partnerships. I also integrate analytical Finance approaches into the work that I do, modelling economic benefits of social engagement from company, community and investor points of view.
My Background:
A long-term Finance leader in a multi-national Corporate environment. Focusing on strategic transformation and on global process optimization over a 30+ year career, my strength has been integrating complex end-to-end processes in ways that optimize value across multiple stakeholders. Using Finance as a business improvement ‘activator’, I have worked cross-culturally and cross-regionally in bringing together diverse stakeholders toward common perspectives on overall value.
