A former C-suite leader for the global data and insights giant, Kantar, and CEO of some of their fastest growing markets in APAC, Anne has turned around businesses from Myanmar to Malaysia, by unlocking human potential and redesigning work for performance.
Anne has led 4-day, multinational mega-sprints with 150 experts, fired unprofitable clients as part of a 40% growth turnaround, and had a conference room full of researchers dancing a congo line, without saying a single word.
Anne has worked in Hong Kong, Singapore, and Sydney, spoken at events on 17 stages (and counting) across 12 APAC markets, and in the name of leadership has eaten ants, jellyfish, and cow intestines. (She recommends the jellyfish).
As the founder of Productivity Bargain, Anne helps leaders unlock the performance benefits of a 4-day week, EVEN IF they’re not ready to implement one.
Through speaking, workshops, and consultancy, Anne gives leaders and their teams a strategy to shifts the system - not just treating the symptoms - creating results that last.
Anne is also an active volunteer and advocate for gender equality and women in leadership. As Head of Inclusion and Diversity, APAC, at Kantar she established I&D committees in 14 markets, formalised leadership and I&D programs, expanded focus from Gender equality to all forms of inclusion, and secured business funding and support for local market I&D leaders. She also volunteers with Lean In, currently as Sydney Network leader and previously as Lean In Girls pillar leader in Singapore until 2024.
