Meet Our Team.

 

Unique expertise, global experience.

Executive Change was founded 20 years ago by seasoned technology leaders with extensive professional histories across multiple sectors. Their combined experience, interpreting multi-national business strategies into global IT requirements, with direct board responsibility for budgets, led to the vision that informs all our services.

Executive Change advisory boards are individually curated from our international network of members, typically CIOs and CTOs, all expert C-suite buyers. While a small fee for their services is donated to a charity of their choice, our members are not paid. 

Each member combines a rare experience of changing enterprise value, coupled with a passion for technological innovation. They commit to our network and their ongoing work with our clients for the community, the continuous challenges, and the new learnings that Executive Change provides.
