Michael is an expert in good governance, multi-stakeholder approaches and responsible business. He leads the Transparency and Accountability Initiative - a collaborative of leading funders supporting transparency, participation and accountability efforts around the globe. In past roles, notably at the World Bank, he incubated new initiatives ranging from collective action against corruption to a business alliance against malnutrition to the Open Contracting Partnership that promotes better outcomes from the estimated $9.5 trillion in public-private contracts globally.
