Bernard’s background is in strategy and performance management, so he understands not only the tech perspective, but also the key performance indicators (KPIs) leaders need to monitor so they can reach their business goals. He also brings a unique cross-industry perspective that helps board members think in new ways.

As a congenial person who gets along with many different personalities, Bernard can provide a friendly, completely independent challenge to leaders that encourages them to work together to future proof their organisation.

Bernard has the very rare qualities of being able to think strategically, whilst delving into the detail of an organization, and understanding exactly what makes it work. His ability to quickly understand the organization, its key challenges and strategic priorities is second to none.
