Global leadership
Sysdoc was founded by commercially trained pilot Katherine Corich in 1986. Katherine applied the principles that keep people safe in aviation to drive simple, smarter, safer businesses.

It was pure common sense, and she was soon building her client base who were excited by the prospect of better performance, greater customer focus, unrivalled safety and first class decision making in their organisations.
Those principles and passion still drive both Katherine and the global leadership team, and have never been more relevant given the speed of change in business today.
