Peter Farkas

President at Zikla Management Corp.

Calgary, Alberta, Canada

About

For the past 14 years I have served as the senior financial and legal executive of mid-sized and smaller companies (public and private) involved in or related to the oil and gas, energy services, oil sands technology, food production or investment sectors. My Strengths: Entrepreneurial Spirit-I enjoy creating value where previously there was none, and to build a business as part of a team. Business Acumen – Assessing the value and degree of success of a business, and thereafter enhancing its weak spots. Vision – The only way to get to a destination is to ensure everyone on the team understands where that is, and has participated in some way in setting out the plan on how to get there. Efficient Project Execution – Whether dealing with changes in the market place, day to day business challenges or business strategy I draw on my business and professional experience in a number of different industries, contact network, and rigorous analysis to develop effective, practical solutions that in many cases escaped others wrestling with the matter beforehand. Specialties: Corporate finance, strategic planning, mergers and acquisition, executive and general management
