Chris Wilson Executive Human Resources Consultant

Chris is a top-notch Human Resources generalist having worked within Human Resources for over 35 years. He has built up a formidable reputation as an Executive HR Practitioner, mentor and coach and HR Strategist both within Africa, the Middle East and internationally. In addition, he has managed a number of high-level management consulting assignments in a number of countries.
His mission and overarching objective is to consult and provide Executive Leadership with expert direction in developing and maintaining best HR practices in their respective businesses.
Consultancy approach
Chris’s experience as a senior executive in companies in the US, Europe, Middle East, Far East and Africa has enabled him to support individuals and teams in their personal leadership development, in enhancing team effectiveness and in addressing critical business and HR issues. His approach is to co-create pragmatic solutions with his clients, rather than apply standard diagnostic models to unique business, Human Resources and leadership problems. By doing so, he enables the client to have the capabilities to implement solutions and use them to build successful organizations.
At the core of his consulting approach is an appreciation that it is the leadership team who must take “ownership” of the solutions and have the necessary skills to take the organization forward to achieve transformational goals. He provides one on one, team and group coaching to complement his consultancy interventions. I have also been asked to mentor and coach Executive managers.
