About

BIO

When we are in the process of changing – we may feel stuck – however, it is up to us whether we liken this to being in a chrysalis, where we emerge and grow, or quicksand, where perhaps we don’t emerge at all. Friska has reinvented and transformed her life multiple times – each time coming out stronger, better, faster. Her passion lies in helping others do the same.

She previously headed up change at Newcrest Mining, leading changes for its digital transformation, as part of a top-performing team of world-class technology experts who achieved significant safety, productivity and financial outcomes. Friska made digital ubiquitous through my sustainable change framework, which created a strong foundation to drive the adoption of new and emerging technologies.

Prior to this, she was the Global Change Lead for multi-million dollar projects spanning technology, structure, process and people, impacting +23,000 across the seven continents at Worley, and built the change practice within Digital Consulting at Fujitsu Australia.

A lifelong learner and self-confessed geek, my flair for communication and effectiveness at managing the people-side of change have proven to be a compelling cost mitigation strategy.
