The exposure, after a good period in the industry, helped me to develop a holistic perspective to managing business and subsequent evolution to leadership roles. Developing the ability to gain a holistic perspective to managing, is becoming ever more important in a world of great uncertainties and super specialization. NMP helps one to develop that perspective and evolve to leadership roles.”
