Today I speak with Per Olof Schroeder. Per Olof and I were classmates on Fletcher School’s GMAP programme in international affairs. He is an accomplished senior executive with a career in energy, consultancy and technology, including at Microsoft, and more recently as CEO of StormGeo, a weather service provider. We discuss our career trajectories, the importance of staying curious, how things in life often come to us and are rarely the outcome of careful planning.
