Global Wind Organisation (GWO) announces today that Ralph Savage will step down from his position as Chief Stakeholder Relations Officer (CSRO), effective February 2026.
As one of GWO’s longest-serving team members, he has played a crucial role in building and maturing the organisation. Ralph will be leaving GWO to pursue other opportunities.
Jakob Lau Holst, CEO of GWO, remarked:
Ralph has been an integral part of GWO for the better part of a decade. I think I speak on behalf of all of us – members and Secretariat – in saying that his contribution has been very significant.
Throughout his time with us, Ralph has played a critical role in taking our organisation where we are today, developing and leading our partnerships and strategic programmes to encourage the global adoption of GWO training standards across the industry.
I am truly grateful for all his contributions over the years and wish him all the best in his future endeavours.
GWO will begin a transition process in due course to ensure continuity and future success in its stakeholder engagement efforts.
