Alison JenksAlison’s expertise and focus is on ensuring real clarity for the people in an organisation – what part do they play in delivering on the strategic goals; how will they be measured; how will this sense of purpose generate energy and commitment to going further? She has delivered this in organisations throughout her career and does this with a very open and clear style.
She has 25 years of commercial experience and has led change projects in well established companies and in new, post merger integration environments. She has operated at Director level for the past 10 years and understands the importance of the link between the individual and the Board.
Alison now brings this real depth of experience to other organisations. She has operated across the US, Europe and India and is able to handle the complexities that this can generate because of her ability to get to the heart of what is really going on and build understanding.
