Career so far I've held varied roles in the ICT sector and have been Logicalis MD for the past seven years.

If you could be anyone else for a week, who would you be and what would you do? Alex Ferguson. A superb strategist and manager to learn from.

Cloud - friend or foe? Definitely friend.

Has 2011 been as bad as everyone said it would be? No. We have grown the business well from both a revenue and more importantly from an EBIT perspective.

What would you have as your last meal? Skate, chips and mushy peas.

Who would you like to be stuck in a lift with? Claudia Schiffer.

Have any of your predictions come true this year? I don't make them as retrospective analysis only depresses people.

What do you see as the channel's biggest challenge in 2012? Managing cash and focusing the team on the end goal which is profitability.

What is the best part of your day? First thing in the morning with no one in the office.
