How I Help Leadership Teams
01. AI Governance & EU AI Act Readiness
Most organizations aren’t struggling with AI technology — they’re struggling with the decisions around it. Who’s accountable? What’s the risk appetite? How do you govern something that changes faster than your committees meet? I help leadership teams build governance frameworks for AI adoption that actually work — not just compliance checklists, but real decision-making structures. With the EU AI Act taking effect in August 2026, the time to act is now.
02. Transformation & Crisis Leadership
I walk into politically charged, multi-stakeholder situations and create clarity — restructuring programs, turnarounds, hostile customer relationships, multi-vendor tensions. With over 40 years across Cognizant, Tieto, HCL, Nokia, and AXA Tech, I’ve led a €320M shared services restructuring, turned hostile relationships into partnerships, and stabilized organizations in crisis. I bring courage where it’s needed and structured thinking to make complexity manageable.
03. Capability Building
I don’t just deliver — I build organizational muscle that survives my departure. Whether it’s governance structures, transition capabilities, or communities of practice, I create frameworks through people, not mandates. The goal is always the same: your organization can sustain the results on its own.
