Speaking & Workshops
I work with executive teams, boards, and portfolio companies on applied intelligence, commercial strategy, and building capability without dependency.
A Unique Perspective
The only framework combining board-level AI governance with executable tools, proven across Asia-Pacific markets. EDGE bridges the gap between strategic intent and operational reality, translating governance from restriction into competitive advantage.
Drawing from 12 years across Singapore, Jakarta, Bangkok, Vietnam, Australia and beyond, and another 14 in London, I bring both commercial operating experience and governance discipline to help organisations move from experimentation to structured capability.

What Teams Walk Away With
These are not training programmes. They are decision-making sessions that produce concrete outputs.
- Decision Ownership Map: Clear accountability for AI adoption across functions
- Risk Assessment Checklist: Governance, compliance, and execution risks identified
- 30-Day Action Roadmap: Prioritised next steps with assigned ownership
- Framework Templates: Downloadable decision matrices, escalation protocols, and review structures
Workshops typically run 2-4 hours and can be delivered in-person or remotely to executive teams, boards, or portfolio companies.

Speaking topics include:
- The EDGE Framework: Structuring Intelligence for Capability

- Governance as Enabler: Building Trust Through Discipline

Advisory & Board Engagement
Board-level engagement focused on:
- Strategic direction and commercial priorities
- Investment readiness and execution risk
- Governance and accountability frameworks
- M&A integration and transformation
I work with CEOs and leadership teams where clarity, pace, and consequence matter.
