READ AUKE'S BIO
Meet Auke – Director
Auke is somebody who has always ‘learned by doing’. This included his schooling career, culminating in his MBA from Durham University in the UK, right through to the way he entered, progressed and learned in business.
He has a keen eye for detail and an innate ability to ‘see’ when things are not going well, even in situations where he is not a subject matter expert. Auke was born in the Netherlands, but is a citizen of the world, having grown up and lived everywhere and no-where. When it came time to move somewhere and bring his vast sales, manufacturing, fault finding, people management, and business restructuring experience to the fold, Australia has been his home for close to the last two decades.
Auke’s global experience has shaped him into an all-rounder who knows how things work in business and more importantly what things don’t work in business. His hands-on technical, engineering, people and sales management experience have taught him that people are the drivers of any business, as people deal with people, not businesses.
Auke has a refreshing straight to the point approach that is based on trust, partnership, a drive to always find positive outcomes to move forward on collaboratively, and doing ‘the right thing’, even if this is sometimes the harder thing to do. With these simple mantra’s he has achieved many successes for his customers, colleagues and employers over the years.

READ CATH'S BIO
Meet Cath
Cath is a senior-level management consulting professional, who has worked for both a Big Four consulting firm and a Big Four Australian Bank, where she helped C-level management to resolve their Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) problems. She was also a practice Partner at a global IT Services firm, where Cath and her team advised organisations from small to large and across multiple industries, how to effectively manage operational risks including people risks, compliance risks and IT security risks.
Cath’s philosophy in work, and indeed across all elements of life, is to keep things simple. That sounds… simple, but she often finds that businesses have unnecessarily complicated processes and systems. The result is either a heavy Governance, Risk & Compliance burden where there doesn’t need to be one, or a lack of understanding or insight into the risks and issues a company faces.
Cath can help your organisation establish or enhance your understanding and management of key people and other operational risks, develop a GRC management capability, conduct risk assessments and develop risk management strategies and roadmaps. She can also help to build up your team’s GRC skills and advise in the selection and implementation of risk management IT solutions.
