In this episode of Measured, Rene interviews Mo Srivastava, a Senior Consultant at Red Dot 3D and renowned geostatistician. Reflecting on his dynamic career, Mo shares his continually evolving perspective on the philosophies that underpin consulting, as well as some memorable stories and anecdotes from his global travels. Mo and Rene discuss how effective and meaningful consulting needs to be more than simply supplying technical solutions — long-term success requires working with clients to ensure they also have the resources (and mindsets!) to sustain these outcomes.
