Gerrit has also provided training for several government entities and advised them on the best practices required to comply with their SCM regulations.
ESG Green Procurement Keynote or Masterclass Presenter
With the advent of the demand for the implementation of policies and strategies around environmental, social and governance (ESG), Gerrit has produced a one-hour keynote presentation as well as a one or two-day masterclass on the implementation of ESG Green Procurement within organisations and their contribution in the race to net zero. To date the feedback has largely been positive by those who've listened to his presentation/masterclass and organisers of conferences and summits are welcome to include this dynamic conversation into their programmes.

Gerrit also assists enterprises and conference organisers with researching the aspect of how to implement new policies and strategies within organisational and operational ecosystems.
