Roger William Weatherburn-Baker
Born and educated in Britain, Roger began his career as a reporter with the Financial Times in London before beginning a 30-year corporate communications career that took him from London to Paris and New York.
After working as a cub reporter on the Financial Times, Roger joined the communications function of IBM at their UK headquarters in London. Four years later, he was chosen to coordinate all aspects of the visit to IBM of HRH Queen Elizabeth II, working for six months in liaison with Buckingham Palace at a time when terrorist attacks by the Irish Republican Army where frequent in Britain.
Following a successful Royal visit, he was sent on international assignment to IBM Europe Headquarters in Paris to launch an employee newspaper and maintain a common level of quality for the corporation's pan-European internal communications.
While in Paris, he became the first European to be named an Accredited Member of the US-based International Association of Business Communicators and was a founding member of the Paris Chapter of Toastmasters International.
