How Dan Jacob is building a better working world
I am building a better working world by assisting companies minimizing their impact on environment and society while ensuring that the opportunities in the green transition is utilized to ensure long term value creation for our environment and society but also businesses.
The last few years I have worked across a large number of sectors, which includes oil and gas, process industry, bioindustry, waste and water treatment, finance, retail and culture. This has given me a good overview over best practice within strategy, implementation, reporting and management.
