Planning for the Unplannable with Savvas Manousos

Planning for the Unplannable with Savvas Manousos

As we enter the planning season, we consider why business planning in the commodity sector is so challenging. And how uncertainty and a more volatile world has made it even more so? What can organizations do to build in resiliency and flexibility into planning and what tools are available to better manage the downsides and also capture opportunities? Our guest is Savvas Manousos. Savas has spent a long career building and running trading platforms and is now a partner at Enco Insights, a global advisory network dedicated to energy and commodities. As an Enco Insight Partner, Savas and his colleagues are supporting Corporates and Strategics around the world, build, develop and implement plans big and small to meet the challenges of the commodity sector today. Enco Insights provides senior energy & natural resources advisors for short to long -term engagements to the private equity world, the legal world and of course corporates when the stakes are high and the insight matters.
