kindred: supporting organisations in becoming responsible.
my personal commitment
It’s my belief that profitability and sustainability are not at odds, but need to complement each other in an interconnected world that faces complex challenges from rapid change in technology and regulations to shifting consumer expectations, particularly affecting supply chains.
There is no straightforward answer to the complex issues we are facing. They need a tailored approach I can help you build – be it via dedicated engagements or in the role of a fractional Chief Sustainability Officer.
Sustainability means doing business and ensuring that the planet, consumers, and companies are here to stay. I believe in businesses that can make the world a better place. Sustainability should be everyone’s business because our future depends on how well we incorporate it into our daily work.
Having lived with locals in Cameroon and Indonesia changed my life: the gaping lack of environmental management system and labour rights infringements clearly demonstrated the urgent need for lasting supply chain solutions. My journey led me from environmental management to working in certification, and gaining an increasingly deeper understanding of the big picture of our sustainability challenges.
As a corporate sustainability consultant, I have designed waste management programs for communities in Italy, helped brands in Romania and Slovenia to develop sustainable packaging solutions, developed a decarbonization library for UK SMEs, worked with a number of Irish SMEs on their Net Zero journey, got a Norwegian fashion brand certified for OEKO TEX Responsible Business, and worked as the national expert on supply chain due diligence risk.
I will help you understand, measure, and report on your company's impact.
I am here to support you in structuring and,
if necessary, redesigning your processes to effectively address challenges in alignment with both your company's objectives and related standards and regulations.
