Shared Services Guest Speaker Mike Rogers at the C5 Institutional Investors Conference in London in 2008

“Mike worked for me at World Vision International as Director of Microfinace Systems. His work ethic, clear vision, and willingness to go anywhere to do anything was a blessing to our ministry/business. Mike lead a very difficult project to standardise processes, select information systems, negotiate global systems agreements with vendors/partners, and implement these processes and systems in over 40 countries. Mike lead us up to the first two pilots in Ethiopia and Ecuador. Could not have made this part of the journey without him. I would work with him again any day!”
