001 Atkins Keith Clarke

摘要

Keith Clarke, chief executive of Atkins, has already steered Britain's biggest architectural firm through tough times.rnWhen he joined the company in October 2003, it was in a mess. Atkins had made expensive acquisitions in the US in areas such as facilities management, in a bid to turn itself into a multi-faceted 'solutions provider'. On top of that, Atkins' new billing system had malfunctioned, and its share price had gone into freefall.
