About Craig Carlson
I started my career at General Motors as a District Sales Manager. I was later promoted to Assistant Zone Manager. Following my time at GM, I moved into consulting, joining Arthur D. Little — a global management consultancy with offices in 30 countries. Over the years, I held several leadership roles including Senior Consultant, Consulting Director, Division Director, Director of Technology Licensing, and Director of Sales. I subsequently held senior roles at Cambridge Consultants and EY-Parthenon. I currently serve as a Senior Advisor at Bain & Company. Throughout my career, I have also been active in governance and public service. I have served on the Boards of the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston, the Boston Museum of Science and the Center for Business and Government at Harvard
