About the Facilitator


Tim Holmes worked in asset management and the IT industry for 26 years until moving to Sirdar Group in 2013. During his journey from data capture clerk in London to Managing Director of FinSwitch in Cape Town, he experienced most of the aspects of a good and bad board and the typical lack of understanding of what it means to be a director of a private or family business. 


Tim is passionate about education and making complex technical problems understandable to business people, originally with information technology and now with governance and the art of being an effective director. Tim has been a shareholder, director and manager of various privately held and family businesses and is currently independent chairman of WeThinkCode and Systems Anywhere.
