How Izumi is building a better working world
“In order to build a better working world, I subscribe to the thinking that we shouldn’t be focusing on the services we would like to provide, but the kinds of services clients desire.
I work to improve business acumen through implementing leading market intelligence, industry insights and thought leadership. Additionally, I listen closely to boardroom and leadership feedback so that I can understand specific requests accurately and suggest approaches in a timely manner.”
