She describes herself as humble, shy and rarely flustered. Rare qualities, given that behind her are two Masters Degrees in International Relations and Business Finance and Administration, 15 years of experience in allied oil and gas and energy production sectors and an extremely sharp eye when she’s shooting that 3-pointer in the women’s local basketball league.

Khalida has worked on over 10 global transformation and learning projects, led the development and launch of our Managing Safely for Wind Power program and is widely known across the sector as a reliable, hard-working and cheery professional.

Khalida is originally from Azerbaijan, where she often spends her holidays. We love working with Khalida.

Jimmy is our sounding board, a source of challenge and brings a grounded view to the team. His illustrious experience in the nuclear sector and developing and leading renewable organisations on a global scale is strongly felt across the boardroom table. 

As our NED, we appreciate his direct and practical approach. Jimmy has a clear vision for renewables, and the skills to bring mega-projects to fruition. These are all critical qualities that Jimmy brings to bear when evaluating our strategy, products, content and market-entry and growth propositions. 

Jimmy loves the outdoors, whether it’s cross-country skiing, screaming around the racetrack on his bike or fishing in the beautiful lakes of Sweden. 

He is genuinely multi-disciplined. Trained initially in health sciences in South Africa, Rakesh pursued a career in advisory and consulting since the mid-nineties. Rakesh has advised some of the world’s leading energy companies in contentious and non-contentious projects. He also worked with one of the world’s largest IPPs as their Senior Vice President and Global Head of Safety. 

At heart, he is an innovator, fascinated by the inner workings of organisations and their relationship with the outside world. His MBA in international business and applied systems thinking set him on a path focused on supporting renewable leaders to grow their organisations adaptively and resiliently.  

Rakesh has played a central role in growing consulting and advisory practices and is now spearheading the market entry and growth of h’alt^®.

We’d love to talk about what he does in his spare time. His response: ‘spare time?’
