Chris Lake
ServiceNow Delivery & Operations Leader at SoftwareOne
Serendipity took Chris off the banking path and pulled him into the world of Management Consulting - A place, as it turns out, he was made for. An academic lover of the art of consulting, Chris has spent more than 15 years observing, growing, serving and leading teams built to help businesses through times of transformation. He has sat with myriad clients through their greatest moments of upheaval and, through this experience, has honed the ability to support new clients through their greatest periods of uncertainty.
Serendipity struck again as Chris found himself pulled into IT. An outsider at first, he found a home with Beniva Consulting, now SoftwareOne, where he didn't need to match the teams' technical genius; he simply needed to empower it. He now leads the entire ServiceNow delivery practice and the group of world class consultants that make it amazing!
Chris was unintentionally raised to have no choice but to be an ally to women in the workforce; particularly, you guessed it, in consulting.
