Arche Advisory Appoints Veblen Advisory Board

October 19, 2026 7:50 AM EDT

Dubai, United Arab Emirates, 19th Oct 2026 - Arche Advisory, a Singapore-incorporated management consultancy founded by Ganaesh Aku, has appointed an Advisory Board through the Veblen Director Programme to support its next phase of development. The board brings experience across leadership, governance, organisational transformation, operational clarity and strategic growth as the firm builds its early client base and strengthens its position with founder-led businesses, small enterprises, and over time, broader mid-market and corporate engagements.

Arche Advisory was established to help founders and leaders close the gap between what they want their organisation to become and how it actually operates day to day. Its method runs vision and identity work in parallel with business, process and technology architecture, with the aim of making aligned execution the default rather than something that must constantly be enforced by the founder. The firm works in an enablement model, progressively handing ownership back to the client so the organisation can operate at full strength independently.

"Arche Advisory was built around a simple belief: organisations perform best when vision, identity, strategy and operations genuinely align," said Ganaesh Aku, Founder. "I am delighted to welcome this Advisory Board at such an important stage. Their experience will help strengthen the business, sharpen how the methodology is brought to market, and support Arche Advisory as it grows into a trusted partner for founders and leadership teams."

Shelley-Ann Pieterse - Chair of the Board, is an executive alignment coach and former Managing Director at Accenture with more than twenty years of experience across leadership, transformation and complex organisational environments. Her work brings together strategic thinking, empathy and practical leadership tools, with a strong focus on sustainable performance, inclusive decision-making and helping leaders succeed without losing themselves in the process.

"I am pleased to join Arche Advisory as Chair," said Shelley-Ann Pieterse. "The business is built on a thoughtful and credible foundation. I look forward to supporting Ganaesh as he develops a practice that helps leaders build organisations with greater clarity, alignment and long-term sustainability."

Craig Coldicott - Board Advisor, brings more than thirty years of experience advising on growth initiatives, transformation programmes, technology investments, acquisitions and strategic development. Through his work with founder-led businesses, he helps leadership teams identify the real constraints behind stalled growth, sharpen priorities and improve confidence in decision-making.

"I'm delighted to join Arche Advisory's Advisory Board," said Craig Coldicott. "I look forward to helping turn a well-crafted methodology into a thriving consulting business."

Andrew Davey - Board Advisor, works with high-performing leaders and the organisations they run through moments of pressure, uncertainty and change that do not appear in strategy documents but shape long-term outcomes. His perspective spans leadership resilience, culture, trust, retention and the human factors that underpin durable organisational performance.

"Arche Advisory is tackling a challenge that many businesses feel but struggle to articulate," said Andrew Davey. "I look forward to supporting a model that helps founders and leadership teams build organisations that perform well and hold together under pressure."

Anna Glogowska - Board Advisor, is an international executive leader with more than twenty years of experience across supply chain, operations and manufacturing transformation. She is recognised for designing and executing end-to-end strategies that deliver measurable results, including double-digit EBITDA improvement, cost reduction, stronger performance management and future-oriented operating models.

"I am pleased to support Arche Advisory at this stage of its journey," said Anna Glogowska. "Its approach connects strategic ambition with the operational discipline required to make change real, which is exactly what many growing organisations need."

Bo Schack - Board Advisor, brings over thirty years of international experience in diplomacy, humanitarian operations, development and strategic leadership. Alongside current board leadership in property development and management, he is also a certified executive coach and mentor, with particular strength in conflict management, cross-functional leadership and helping organisations navigate complex environments.

"I am delighted to join the Advisory Board of Arche Advisory," said Bo Schack. "The firm's emphasis on clarity, ownership and aligned execution is highly relevant for leaders operating in complex and fast-changing conditions, and I look forward to contributing to its growth."

The appointment of the Advisory Board marks an important milestone for Arche Advisory as it moves from early-stage client development into its next period of growth. With deep experience across governance, leadership, transformation and organisational design, the board will support the firm in refining its market position, strengthening delivery, and building a business that reflects the same clarity and alignment it helps clients achieve.
