CORPORATE SUSTAINABILITY

  • Strategy.

    A sustainability strategy is not just about compliance but also fosters innovation, attracts conscious consumers, and creates value through new business models. I help companies define a clear material topics and their opportunities for impact.

  • Implementation.

    Embedding sustainability into every facet of a company’s business operations translates intentions into impactful actions. I support companies in executing key aspects of their strategy to achieve meaningful results that drive long-term value creation for the firm.

  • Communication.

    I help companies create compelling sustainability narratives that resonate with internal and external stakeholders. By using issue-based strategic communication, I ensure sustainability initiatives are clearly conveyed, fostering engagement and trust.
