Rather than hear me talk about myself, here is an unedited sample of what others, that I have worked with, have said about me.
Intelligent, motivated and resilient
Andrew is an intelligent, motivated and resilient individual who is able to adapt to new situations and challenges and energise those around him to do the same!
We worked in different groups, but I was impressed with his ability to develop winning strategies and manage stakeholders effectively across the organisation to deliver great solutions for both our customers and our company.
As a leader, he has applied his versatile skill set and experience across a number of industries, drawing linkages and competitive edge which may be missed by others. A formidable asset to any team.

True leader and tireless energy
I had the pleasure of working with Andrew while he was General Manager – Preclinical Research Products at Optiscan.
I admired Andrew’s ability to excel in so many different roles whether he was managing distributor relations, interacting directly with clients, liaising with his technical support team, or engaging with his Board of Directors.
Andrew is an incredibly intelligent and passionate individual with skills that span all areas of business including strategic planning, marketing, business development and sales management. He has all the qualities of a true leader and a tireless energy that is enviable.
Most importantly, Andrew is the consummate professional, he is genuine and honest, and conducts himself with the utmost of integrity. I look forward to one day working with Andrew again.

Tireless energy and infallible ethics
“In the business world there are very few people who combine raw intelligence, tireless energy and infallible ethics better than Andrew Froude. As impressive as Andrew’s abilities to effectively and productively multi-task as well as take on and run with the enormously challenging undertakings of CSG Print Services Victoria, S.A. and W.A, it’s his talent for bringing people together and bringing out the best in them is inspiring.
Andrew energises everyone, colleagues, directors and subordinates to attain a common goal or task. His focus is unparalleled and ability to relate on any level makes him an asset to any organisation. I’m truly fortunate to have him as a friend and mentor.”

Sales Executive, CSG Print Services
Passion, focus and professionalism
Passion, focus and professionalism are all qualities that jump to mind whilst working with Andrew in the Production Print business at Océ Australia. His efforts to add value and share innovative ideas with both customers and internally within the business, were with a genuine desire to improve the way business was done and achieve more results. He was a great asset to the PP business.

Passion for delivering excellent customer service
I thoroughly enjoyed working with Andrew, he is a true professional with a passion for delivering excellent customer service – both before and after the sale has occurred.
For example, Andrew’s diligence and holistic approach to servicing his customers resulted in Oce expanding our customer management reporting suite, to provide customers with a much better understanding of how we could better work together to achieve their business goals through improving their equipment uptimes.

Plan and deliver
I’ve worked with Andrew on a number of projects and engaged his services across a range of businesses over a period of 15 years. He is someone who knows how to plan and deliver, he is a positive leader when heading a team and he’s an individual who will develop a plan and work through to a logical goal and outcome.
Andrew has a wonderful ability to keep things on track and cut through to the important aspects of a project, process or business problem. Most importantly he brings the best out in his teams and walks the talk when in leadership roles.
I’ve seen Andrew perform in a number of businesses across a range of industries and always been delighted by his performance and the manner in which he goes about things. People respond to him because he is genuine, operates with integrity and everyone knows what is expected.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Andrew for a senior management, leadership role or as a lead on a difficult and complex project. And yes, I would hire him again if the opportunity came up.
