SKILLS
ABOUT SWEE MAK
I am a highly versatile, impact-focused senior executive with extensive leadership and management experience across the research and innovation eco-system, with well-developed skills operating in complex multi-stakeholder environments. With deep experience gained through senior leadership roles in Australia’s national research organization and the higher education sector, I comfortably traverse the entire research and innovation value chain, including strategy, program development and delivery, industry engagement, strategic partnerships, entrepreneurship and research translation. This experience underpins my capacity to lead strategic change and build organizational capability to enable impact. My skills have been shaped across multiple market segments as diverse as manufacturing, transport, energy, infrastructure, defence, health and government, leading in turn to broad connections and significant relationships across the innovation eco-system. With highly developed capability in designing, leading and improving complex large portfolios, I comfortably deal with a wide range of operational, business, commercial, and policy issues, both at the tactical and strategic level. I am particularly excited with opportunities to shape impact focused eco-systems and building collaborations across functional units across an enterprise. In a highly complex environment, I am comfortable dealing with ambiguity and uncertainty, bringing curiosity and intuition to strategic issues, coupled with incisive thinking to solve problems. I have a highly inclusive, engaging and balanced leadership style, preferring evidence-based consensus style of decision making but equally comfortable with being directive when required. My approach to leading people is performance driven, collaborative and inclusive, preferring to bring the entire team along to own the strategic intent, along with team based and personal accountabilities. My background in leading multi-disciplinary teams and fostering trans-disciplinary engagement underpins my inclination to cross boundaries to generate innovative solutions to complex problems. With an entrepreneurial flair, I often play the role of a catalyst in creating business and collaboration opportunities from the connections that I make.
