I serve on boards at inflection points — when growth must be matched by discipline, governance and execution.With over 25 years of executive leadership across healthcare, consumer, retail and investment sectors, I have led acquisitions, IPOs and capital raises; doubled revenues as CEO; managed business units exceeding R$2.5B in annual revenue; and built governance frameworks in fast-scaling organizations.My experience bridges entrepreneurial environments and structured capital. I have worked closely with founders, family shareholders and investors, helping organizations professionalize operations while preserving strategic ambition.As Founder of NG Consulting Partners, I support boards and executive teams on strategy execution, M&A structuring, post-merger integration (PMI), governance design and leadership alignment. This work includes targeted executive interventions designed to strengthen decision-making at senior levels.My current board experience includes serving at Salute Saúde and at Amigos da Poli, contributing to strategic direction, institutional sustainability and long-term value creation.I also serve as faculty at Link Business School, teaching governance, leadership and growth — connecting executive practice with the next generation of entrepreneurs.📩 gabriela@ng-cp.com
