After two years of being in the job, David Jenkins CEO reviewed the COMM*BAT report to reflect on the progress of the organisation. He shared this with the Zadro team.
“It is essential for any new CEO to spend time reflecting, asking the ‘right’ questions and listening to all opinions from a range of stakeholders. It’s not something that should be rushed despite the pressures and urges to do so. ZADRO developed a COMM*BAT strategy two years ago and it still resonates. Insightful, carefully thought through and actionable. With ZADRO you have an organisation that will deliver a ‘real’ perspective, providing a clear pathway for future strategy development and implementation.”
“Felicity and the team took the time to understand the IPWEA business, key objectives and our audience. They then worked hard to deliver a complete solution, which delivered great results for us.”
David Jenkins, CEO, IPWEA
