New Speaking Platform: Excited to Join Stern Speakers and Advisors

I am honored to join the distinguished roster of Stern Speakers and Advisors, known for fostering engaging dialogues between visionary thinkers and organizations aspiring for impactful change. My journey with Stern opens a wider avenue to share my extensive research and insights on Sustainability Leadership and Corporate Responsibility, a realm I am deeply passionate about. Over the years, I have been devoted to exploring the significant roles modern business organizations play in fostering a sustainable future, with a keen focus on understanding the interactions between companies, capital markets, and society in this transformative journey.

My engagement as a speaker with Stern provides a remarkable platform to extend the discourse on responsible management and sustainability, topics I have been fervently advocating for through numerous high-profile keynotes globally including notable events such as Moody’s Annual EMEA convention, the inaugural Malta Sustainability Forum, and the BlackRock Goldman Sachs Factor Symposium among others.

Through this collaborative endeavour with Stern Speakers and Advisors, I am eager to further catalyze meaningful conversations, drive actionable insights, and inspire a collective stride towards embracing sustainable business models and practices.
