Leading Through a Crisis as a First-time Group CEO

Authored by Bridgette Hall, Senior Editor, Criticaleye

Once a major importer of Russian gas, Uniper faced financial turmoil in 2022, culminating in an adjusted EBIT loss of €10.9 billion—due in large part to the non-delivery of gas from Russia—and stabilisation measures implemented by the German Government. Michael Lewis, who took on the Group CEO role in 2023, talks to Criticaleye about a bold strategy to rebuild the company as a sustainable energy provider

For leaders undertaking complex transformation programmes, Criticaleye's highly bespoke leadership development offers CEOs and senior executives the chance to ask questions and compare approaches with peers from different organisations, sectors and regions. Get in touch with our team here to discuss how to join our global Community of senior leaders.
