Perceptions of value are changing, and consumer expectations will only accelerate. Companies must find new ways to define and measure the value they deliver, otherwise they risk irrelevance.

How Jon is building a better working world

“I believe in looking forward not backwards, to see how things can be changed rather than how they have changed.

In my previous role, I helped to measure and improve the “liveability” and affordability of cities. Now at EY, the work I do helps clients unlock long term value and deliver a positive impact on both people and the planet. To me these will be critical to building a better working world as we cannot improve a world that we cannot live in.”
