Wonder Women Series EP4_Joana Bonto_COO

COO of Move Ahead Media (Thailand) & Executive Director of Simple Scaleable Solutions, Joana Bonto is a Strategist, Problem Solver, People & Culture Advocate & Inspiring the Next Gen of Servant & Transformational Leaders

During her time in the corporate world, Joana witnessed firsthand the destruction and devastation when companies go under and when leaders become part of the problem rather than the solution. She knows what NOT to do. She has failed and learned many times, experienced executive burnout and even imposter syndrome.

Now she helps a number of startups and SMEs grow + scale by sharing my learnings, invest in and support business owners to help solve their organisational issues, execute their ideas and, future proof their organisations.

I do this through my proven process of success and, simple scalable solutions…with the ultimate aim of accelerating their growth and transforming their organisations into a viable, values and data-driven workplace.

Joana uses her top five strengths  (Strategic, Command, Achiever, Competition, and Responsibility) to instinctively see and find multiple paths to solve a problem, choose the best option based on facts and data allowing her to make decisions quickly and effectively. Creative by nature, passionate in spirit, innovative at heart, resourceful, and values-driven, She challenges the status quo and think beyond the current norms and practices, my problem-solving ability, solutions-focused approach, and sense of humour helps ;)

Joana believes that automation is salvation, data is the key, culture is everything, and understanding the company’s WHY is the secret ingredient to success because it’s about driving behaviours instead of just focusing on the end results.

With that belief, She mentors leaders and individuals to be the best version of themselves they can be so they can serve the people they lead both at home and at work because my strength lies in seeing others' potential, stretching them far beyond what they think they are capable of.

Integrity always leads her to do the right thing as she takes full accountability and ownership of everything she does so others around me can always rely, trust and depend on me to ‘get shit done’ and deliver!
