95% of Fortune 500 companies have a Chief Sustainability Officer.
Many mid-market companies think that the luxury of an additional C-Suite role just isn't in the budget.
This is because they are choosing to view sustainability as an EXPENSE, not an OPPORTUNITY.
Sustainability for the mid-market is often NOT about requirements, reporting, and compliance - it can be more about values, culture, engaging workers, and attracting customers.
Many mid-market companies are filling the strategic sustainability role via a Fractional Chief Sustainability Officer or Strategic Advisor.
I love to be that person for companies on a sustainability journey that are in need of strategic business thinking.
