Working with a geopolitically scattered team - being able to bring everyone together who understands the bigger picture is important.
This is for you, if you’ve already done all you can where you are and now you want to make a real difference to the world we live in. But also to drive your career forward, at a much faster speed than you would if you were sat where you currently are.
