Heinz Herrmann

 CEO

As a board director, I can contribute substantially to strategy and execution risk from my track record as an executive, as well as my work with major management consultancies such as Cap Gemini, McKinsey, JP Morgan and Bain. I have held senior executive roles in Asia Pacific Sales & Marketing for the last 20 years, including reporting to boards as a CEO. My nonexecutive board director experience is with an NFP in the Arts and a cloud-based HR software company. I offer deep experience in Digital Marketing, Strategy, Business Development & Sales, M&A, Business Turnaround, Change Management, B2B, B2C, IT & Telecommunications, Services, Digital Media, Broadcasting, Engineering, Manufacturing, Consumer Electronics and Tertiary Education. Extensive assessment by Human Synergistics describes me as an "LSI blue" leader ("constructive style"). This has helped my organisations to retain staff with less than 10% staff turnover, even during times of transformational change. As I’ve been doing business in Asia Pacific for 20 years, my cross-cultural awareness is strong. My experience is with big blue chips as well as small companies and start-ups ($2m -- 1.6 billion revenue). Academic credentials include a doctorate in business administration, a masters in IT, a bestselling IT book and a senior fellowship with the Australian Graduate School of Leadership. I am currently an adjunct professor of leadership at Torrens University Australia.
