Robert McRae - Candidate

What skills will you contribute to the NCF Board?

• An experienced IT professional with an in-depth knowledge of business development, product/project planning, process and methodology.
• A strong technical background and working knowledge of business practices with solid problem solving abilities.
• Managing custom projects with broad cross-industry knowledge.
• Exceptionally creative with effective organization and interpersonal skills.
• Powerful leadership skills in leading multi-disciplinary teams, in a matrix management environment with strong planning, coordinating and delegating capacities.

What are the most important functions of the NCF for its members?

The NCF must stay current and topical offering value for money. Specifically, the product/service offering must align with member needs at a competitive price.

Why do you want to be an NCF director?

I wish to contribute back to the community where I have raised a family and worked most of my life. As a relatively new member to the NCF, I feel we could improve our visibility in the community with enhanced branding and product recognition/offering. NCF is a well-kept secret which could grow exponentially with a little marketing and product promotion thereby reducing product/operating cost(s) which could be passed onto its members. I have skills and experience which could bring value to the NCF offering.
