Executive Advisor

Creating a future-fit business requires strong and thoughtful sustainability leadership. I tailor advisory sessions for board directors and C-suites to individual needs.

I have worked with listed, family- and foundation-owned companies as well as large corporations and SMEs. My hybrid background means I can help leaders identify the right priorities and solutions.

I apply a commercial, regulatory, scientific and cultural perspective to empower leaders to drive business transformation and navigate the sustainability space effectively.

Sustainability leadership coaching for board directors and C-suite

Are you in the beginning stages of your sustainability journey as a board director or are you further along and looking to integrate sustainability across all board activities? 

I offer leadership coaching for individual board directors and boards, applying a sustainability mindset to key board responsibilities:

  • Strategic direction: applying an ESG lens to sales, operations, supply chain, finance, innovation and people & culture to create a sustainable business strategy. 
  • Governance: advising on clear roles & responsibilities, capability building, checks & balances and an agile company culture to achieve effective implementation.
  • Financial oversight: advising on integrated reporting, regulations, assurance, data, sustainable finance.
  • Succession planning: identifying and integrating sustainability capabilities for executives across the organization to ensure relevant and competent leadership.

I also offer leadership coaching for C-suite executives focusing on sustainable business strategies and implementation: 

  • How to create a sustainable business strategy and achieve buy-in during the development phase. 
  • How to anchor implementation in the business.
  • How to navigate the company culture effectively.
  • How to engage different systems and external stakeholders to optimize value creation and brand reputation.

Sustainability leadership: the difference between success and failure

Environmental and social sustainability has a direct impact on companies’ viability and bottom-line. It inevitably challenges the existing culture and operations of most companies and it fundamentally changes how companies perceive themselves.

This means that strong and thoughtful sustainability leadership at board and C-suite level is the difference between success and failure and is essential to create future-fit and competitive businesses. 

I tailor advisory sessions for board directors, boards and C-suite executives to individual needs.

I apply a commercial, regulatory, scientific and cultural perspective to empower leaders to drive transformation and navigate the sustainability space effectively. I also have hands-on experience developing and implementing strategies cutting across the organization and value chain. I know what works and what doesn’t and how to get sustainable results.
