Infigen's successful transition
The recent global financial crisis has highlighted the consequences of decisions made by management. Infigen Energy was a satellite company of the investment bank Babcock and Brown. In the wake of the global financial crisis, Infigen Energy became an independent, internally managed company. Unlike most companies who are looking to expand globally, Infigen Energy has a radically different strategy, putting its offshore assets up for sale and concentrating on building wind farms in Australia to take advantage of new renewable energy laws. Miles George and Alan Kohler critically discuss the decisions that Infigen Energy management have made, offering insights into the challenges and opportunities that managers in Australia face.
