Frank Hannigan's Professional Experience
EBRD - Senior Advisor
Primarily I work as a mentor to CEO's and their team. There is a phase for dealing with major issues. Then when stable, I help imagine the company's future with the CEO, building a sustainable plan to move from where the company is to profit and international success. Typically projects last for 18 months.
The biggest reward is when CEO's ask me to remain on their boards at the end of my EBRD work with them.
ICT Advisor with EBRD – Albania, Mongolia, Taiwan, Kyrgyzstan,Azerbaijan, Serbia and Montenegro.
o Evaluating potential clients for TAM/BAS and training and mentoring the successful clients.
o Working with Governments and other stakeholders to build ICT incubators in several countries in the Balkans and Asia.
o Working to develop EBRD policy on support for cluster development and funding for TSE’s graduating through the TAM/BAS programmes
