THE THROUGH-LINE

A career spent crossing boundaries.

From New York law and capital markets to African infrastructure investment, public policy, project finance, executive education and emerging technology, Sharron’s work has always sat where different systems meet.

The result is a practical body of work about what institutions need in order to decide well when the future refuses to behave like the past.
