My commitment to ISO

      Once elected to the ISO Council, I will spare no efforts in defending the interests of ISO members and their stakeholders:

      1. I will make 10% of my time available to ISO and the ISO community.
      2. As the CEO of a small standardisation body, I fully understand the needs of small-scale standardisation bodies. I will listen, interact, understand and provide advice where required.
      3. I am a strong believer in technology as a strategic driver for making standardisation more inclusive at a lower cost.
      4. I would like to make the involvement of young professionals and students in standards and standardisation a key ingredient for our success.
      5. I am committed to the success of ISO and will work together with fellow ISO Council members and the Secretary-General to help deliver the ISO strategy.
