How
It Works

1

Sustainability Assessment

We will evaluate the current sustainability performance of your organization through a comprehensive assessment.

Data collection and analysis, benchmarking, stakeholder engagement, materiality assessment and climate impact analysis are some of the tools I use to identify your current sustainability status.

2

Sustainability Strategy

Together we’ll develop a clear and actionable sustainability strategy to achieve your goals and elevate your brand.

With a clear vision, mission and objectives we’ll establish measurable goals aligned with your values and stakeholder expectations. Identify key initiatives and opportunities for enhancing sustainability efforts and collaborate with stakeholders to ensure alignment and buy-in for the strategy.

3

Sustainability Plan

I will deliver a detailed and doable plan to implement the sustainability strategy effectively.

Develop a roadmap with specific actions, timelines, and responsibilities for achieving sustainability goals. Outline resources needed, including budget, personnel, and training. Establish key performance indicators (KPIs) to measure progress and effectiveness. Implement a monitoring and reporting framework to ensure accountability and continuous improvement.
