Ian Ward

Currently working as a businesses consultant in his own capacity with over thirty years experience in the public and private sectors of New Zealand business. Ian is married and has three adult children and has lived in the eastern suburbs of Auckland most of his life. He attended the University of Auckland where he obtained a Master of Commerce Degree in Accounting and a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics. Ian specializes in finance and change management.

Between 1998 and 2003 Ian was an employee of ADHB where he held the role of Chief Financial Officer/General Manager Support Services. As a result he has a considerable knowledge of ADHB and the challenges confronting the organisation.

Ian is very passionate toward health and the role of the public health system in New Zealand Society.

It is very clear to him that over recent years there have been relationship problems at ADHB, there has been a breakdown of robust processes and a loss of good staff.

He believes with his background, his experience and the respect he has with medical staff that he can assist rebuild the confidence of the public towards ensuring the public health system is robust and provides a credible service.

Brian Fergus

Dr Brian Fergus BSc PhD offers a depth of senior management experience and consulting advice to both private and public organisations. This is balanced by the practical experience of running his own business.

Auckland is fortunate in having first class facilities and services, but there will always be further room for improvement. It is important that the ADHB maintains high service standard levels (we have had good service from the doctors and nurses at the hospital) but it is important that the organisation has a lean overhead. He believes there should be a continuing emphasis on overhead cost efficiency and would be especially interested in continued investment in improved information systems to advance those cost savings.

Where there is a significant change in services he believes there should be better public communication, a feature lacking in the recent laboratory testing debacle.
