Engineering leaders are under pressure to deliver today and reinvent tomorrow. In this episode, Keith Williams, EVP & CTO at Capgemini Engineering, and Akshat Vaid, Partner at Everest Group, join us to map the current state of play across fast‑moving tech horizons and the convergence of digital and physical innovation. Together, they discuss engineering’s role in sustainability, defense, and biosecurity, and explore how principle‑driven leadership transforms volatility into strategic advantage, setting up the “nirvana” challenge that leads into part two on road‑mapping and execution.
