Viv Baartman
Managing Director - Auckland
Viv has been an innovator in the digital world for the past 20 years. She started out in research and customer experience design, specialising in the NGO and Festival and Museum sector, with a good dose of government work in the mix too. She then went on to take up GM roles at Shift, Optimal Experience and Davanti before bringing her awesome skills to Alphero. While Viv loves the mechanics of doing business, it’s nurturing talent and building a great team culture that really gets her out of bed in the mornings.
Well, that and taking her beloved dog Bonnie out for a stroll. On the weekends her walks get even more ambitious. She loves tramping in the mountains and bush and lives by the mantra “there’s no bad weather, only bad clothing”.
