How Chris is building a better working world

“Companies stand at a pivotal moment where traditional business models can no longer keep pace with evolving consumer expectations, disruptive new entrants and escalating volatility. To help companies achieve sustainable growth and operational excellence, I work with them to reinvent their models, leveraging artificial intelligence to respond to consumer sentiment, enhance agility and automation across the value chain and foster deeper collaboration with ecosystem partners. 

Such large-scale transformation can have positive impacts for customers and consumers, employees and shareholders, suppliers, growers, and the environment. There has never been a more exciting time for the consumer products and retail sector.”
