About

Risk & Assurance Leader | Driving Cultural Intelligence and Behavioral Risk Transformation I help leadership teams build smarter, behaviour‑led risk cultures that accelerate performance and resilience. As an ERMCP‑certified Risk & Assurance leader, I translate strategy into practical governance, risk appetite, and sustainability mechanisms aligning decisions, incentives, and controls across complex, multi‑jurisdictional environments. I’ve led ERM/Resilience programs (ISO 22301), chaired management risk committees, and overseen ESG governance and policy integration (GRI/SASB/TCFD). My focus: decision hygiene, accountability, and data‑driven KRIs that enable Boards and ExCo to act with clarity. Let’s connect if you’re building a stronger, more resilient enterprise.
