“With Stephen’s guidance, we secured a critical outsourcing deal at Optus and navigated billion-dollar transitions at Citibank and Ericsson. His strategic vision and tactical execution along with the deep knowledge that he shares openly, make him an invaluable partner, earning trust and respect from all.”
“Stephen was indispensable and his breadth and depth of skills and knowledge contributed significantly to the team’s success. He was a genuine asset to Compaq/HP through the application of his knowledge, and his aptitude for taking-on complex, wide-ranging tasks. His versatility and flexibility allowed him to successfully undertake and deliver ‘outside-the-box’ outcomes that added significant value to our existing portfolio of services.”
“At Gartner Consulting, Stephen was the stand-out person in the business. A true asset to the business through the results he delivered. His calm equanimity and balanced leadership style positively influenced morale and the team dynamics on bids, in client relations, on delivery engagements and within the office environment.”
“Stephen Pitt-Walker unlocks growth through innovative strategy. His systems thinking approach with a focus on practical implementation has empowered our board to develop, communicate, execute, and sustain winning strategies.”
“Stephen is a true global leader, supremely able to produce business results across cultures. Stephen was generous and supportive, and his expertise was key in closing several big deals with key financial services clients. Ultimately, it is Stephen’s contribution beyond the international business world that impresses me the most. His commitment to human rights shows the true mark of the man, as someone who achieves not only impressive business results, but important improvements for the world.”
“Stephen is one of the highest calibre Board and C-Level advisors I know. While at Unisys, I engaged him to lead a critical multi-million-dollar program. This demanded exceptional commitment, top-notch deliverables under tight deadlines, and navigating a new global service organisation he had little time to grasp. Despite this, he secured buy-in from global leaders and delivered unparalleled results, setting a new internal standard for use on global service accounts. He is highly productive, a thought leader, and a reliable hard worker.”
