With changes in regulation, advances in technology, and an unsettled political climate, large companies turn to Oliver Wyman to prepare for the future. David and the team help these organisations combine their hard-won benefits of scale with much faster adaptability and innovation, enabling them to be better prepared for an ongoing, unpredictable business environment. These efforts can involve developing fundamentally different operating models, new business ventures, and new ways of working.
