How Mark is building a better working world

“Thriving companies prioritize three key principles of transformation: humans@center; technology@speed; innovation@scale. As the energy sector transforms, I’m excited to help clients shape a transition that puts customers at the center, and harnesses digital technology and innovation to evolve products and services. This is how we’ll drive the societal change required to achieve sustainable decarbonization and create long-term value for everyone.”
