Based in the Atlanta office, he led McKinsey’s strategy practice in the Americas for five years, and most recently created and led the firm’s Strategy and Trend Analysis Center globally.
As a prolific writer on growth and strategy, Viguerie will build on Innosight’s tradition of thought leadership.
