Lesley Parker

General Manager, Information, Communication & Technology

Bedford Group

I look for the joy in work. What is it that brings teams together to create joy..... I am a servant leader ready to put myself out into the uncomfortableness to enable teams to perform.

I focus on our people, customers, providers; and the services they need. Then I lead teams to deliver joy. I encourage debate, diversity and fun. I'm fortunate to work with extremely committed and passionate people. My focus on Agile Delivery means we have continual discussions on value- perceived or real.

I have the formal qualifications to back it all up and provide structure and influence to my strategies (MBA, Information Systems, IT and project management). I like to learn, observe, try, fail and succeed. I can work out who I need to know and whose influence I need to get things done.

My joy is in investigating and analysing information systems- all facets- people, process, tech and how we can influence these to provide.
