Each week, our colleague Maria Franzoni invites one of our keynote speakers to discuss their life, work, current projects and passions .We hope that hearing more about them will allow you to get a better understanding of who they are.
Maria’s guest this week works as an adviser to senior leadership teams on strategy, risk and performance. As a former Red Arrows pilot, management consultant and senior manager in a global corporate, he is not a speaker who pontificates from the side lines, but has spent significant time on the pitch, in some of the most demanding of high-performance environments. He has masters’ degrees from Cambridge and London Business School, and is the author of The Business of Excellence. Currently he helping to launch a green technology company.
