Principal, Advisory

KPMG LLP

It’s my job to make sure you don’t settle for a partial transformation. Working with the project team, I’ll be challenging them and you to take advantage of the opportunity to truly change the way you work – beyond change systems or processes, into actual role and behavioral change at your organization. Opportunities to take your organization to another place operationally don’t come along often – together we’ll ensure you make changes that benefit you both now and in the future. I’ve had the pleasure to work around the world, advising global organizations as they change the way they work. What will be critical in this program is to use technology change as a leverage point against other parts of your service delivery model for HR; taking this opportunity to create a model where you love where you live. Three recent engagements: I’ve been working with a global energy and manufacturing organization for the past 2 years, helping them use a recent business transaction and cloud technology transformation to rebuild their employee experience and make their HR function more strategic and digitally oriented. I’ve recently worked with a leading clinical hospital to rebuild their HR function, using a combination of cloud HCM technology and shared services to change the way caregivers are managed and led. I’ve also worked with a global bio-pharmaceutical organization, helping them implement global shared services and a cloud HCM solution to provide a better employee and recruit experience.
