Why it may matterVerify against the original reporting

A high-profile addition to the energy-transition practice could catalyze new consulting wins and higher fees over the next 6–12 months, particularly if it leads to multi-year engagements with utilities, developers, and data-center/AI operators. However, single hires typically have limited immediate price impact absent disclosed client wins.
