Craig Wood of Tricon Energy talks about his plans for the commodities trading platform and how the smartest IT and the most committed partnerships are the key to success
Craig Wood believes in Pedal Power . That efficient use of energy driving a cyclist ’ s legs and converting their movement into the most effective , economic momentum of the wheels .
Earlier this year Wood took time out from his role as the Director of Infrastructure and Security at Tricon Energy to endure a 740km cycle ride through the sweltering heat and endless seas of corn in the state of Iowa . Not only completing but surviving such a gruelling challenge was all about the super-efficient use of resources .
Craig Wood is keen on what he calls leaness . That ’ s all about running a business with no unnecessary fat on the bones – just a lean machine . Something a devoted and passionate cyclist would understand .
Tricon Energy is also a ‘ well-oiled ’ superefficient business . That ’ s largely down to Craig Wood ’ s approach and how he has navigated the company through the even more challenging landscape of the digital age . Tricon Energy is a Houston TX-based leader in the global trade and distribution market . Its technology ensures its clients can trade commodities such as chemicals , plastics , fertilisers , and unprocessed dry bulk materials efficiently and in real time .
Underpinning this commodity trading is Tricon Energy ’ s commitment to utilising the very best IT and the most rewarding business collaborations .
“ To the board of a company , technology is magic and the CIO is a wizard ”
