After more than a decade leading Cascade, Tom Wright handed over the CEO role and became Chief Product Officer. His next chapter returns him to the problem that drew him out of banking: getting a plan to survive the working day.
Charlie Newark-French is the CEO of Cascade, an AI-powered strategy execution platform used by roughly 400 enterprises including PepsiCo, Roche, St. Jude and the World Wildlife Fund. A four-time enterprise software CEO who previously ran Hyperscience and Sharpen, he started at McKinsey, holds a BA from Oxford and an MBA from Harvard, and argues that strategy should run like a live operating system rather than a PowerPoint deck. He hosts the executive podcast 'This Way Forward.'
