The paper and packaging sectors are undergoing a dramatic transformation in scale, scope, and strategy. The pressures driving this transformation come from all sides: rising prices for raw materials to customer demands for lower costs, better service and innovative design.

In the face of consolidation and globalization, paper and packaging companies must be strategically sophisticated, able to drive growth, and astutely manage assets. They must also drive innovation and leverage technology to satisfy customer demands, providing value-added and more profitable products while meeting environmental goals of sustainability. If they are to succeed, they will need a new generation of leaders.
