When Brian Bourquard first joined the arena of finances, not many would have taken a bet on his success. A view persists today that finance is like a game. It is the world of the balance sheet, a world burdened with periodic reports and statistical figures devoid of meaning if viewed superficially. But that is not what Bourquard's world has been about. The man has not only graduated from analyzing data but has also managed to reinvent the very principles of leading organizations in the financial sphere. His work has changed the game for millions and transformed how people think of strategy today.
