John Chang

Senior level management professional – CA/MBA with over 20 years of broad-based experience gained in large and medium-sized multinational and regional companies (revenues ranging US$300 million to US$1.5 billion) driving corporate portfolio management through strategic investments and divestitures, leading change and corporate restructuring, and providing business support for operational efficiency. Specifically, I am a strategic leader - driving value creation strategies, defining performance objectives and allocating resources and capital accordingly. I am skilled in the transformation of organizations by leading M&A, adjusting portfolio allocation, restructuring debts and securing syndicated loans. I am a practical, concrete thinker and creative problem solver with proven ability to build strategic alliances with internal and external stakeholders to resolve business issues, create business opportunities, and manage business projects. I am also an engaging communicator, interfacing with the Board of Directors, investors, bankers, and the media. I maintain high standards for corporate governance and risk management. The greatest value I bring to any team is my ability to navigate through complexity and ambiguity: delayering problems and seeking solutions.
