“My expertise in integrated value creation complements what CE’s current team has to offer,” said Driver. “My experience as both a Board member and strategic business partner will help businesses thrive amid economic turbulence, global financial shifts, internal restructurings and international business expansions.”

Takagawa held company president and senior operating roles with Fortune 1000 Consumer Goods firms prior to founding CE. In addition to being the Founder and CEO of Corporate Edge, he is currently embarking on a yearlong sabbatical as a Fellow of Stanford’s Distinguished Career Institute.

“Seema and Dennis are joining us at a critical time as more and more leaders are looking to leverage innovative ways to solve their companies’ challenges. They are stellar additions to an already illustrious team,” said Takagawa.
