Stephen has been advising businesses for over 30 years - from very small, sole trader businesses through to large multinationals, and everything in between. It is more than a job to Stephen - it is a passion. Success to Stephen (and yes enjoyment) is helping a business survive, become sustainable and prosper. He is very mindful that a business is about people and each stakeholder is a person. He understands that business owners not only have a financial responsibility, but they are accountable and responsible to people - employees, their own family, suppliers (and their employees and families), banks, landlords, the local community etc. This is what keeps Stephen awake at night during a turnaround - the impact and the ramifications of actions, or inactions, on other people. Stephen is a Chartered Accountant (CA), Certified Restructuring and Turnaround Practitioner (RTP), Fellow of Governance Institute Australia FGIA), Fellow Australian Corporate Treasurers Association (FACTA), Fellow Institute of Community Directors (FICDA), Certified Mental Health First Aider.
