I am passionate about helping transform businesses and organisations to become sustainable, understanding and reflecting the UN SDG targets by including social value in their strategic goals and objectives. I also want to empower and promote women and girls through education, good health and enterprise. I aim to achieve this by combining my diverse skillset and work experience which includes Auditing, Financial Reporting and Accounting as a Chartered Accountant (PwC & KPMG), financial information systems risk consultant and trainer, a specialist in NGO and charity accounting (DipChA) and Masters in NGO Management from City Business School, with 6 years experience implementing maternal health and solar energy projects in Ethiopia for GreenLamp.I woke up to the climate crisis knocking at our door when working as a teacher (UK PGCE) whilst raising 3 wonderful confident girls - a career in itself, as we all battled with dyslexia which defies any teaching methodology. Happily we succeeded and with 2 graduated and one on her way, I needed to understand what was going on and why had so little been done to combat the climate and bio-diveristy issues facing the planet.During Covid lockdown I discovered a mini masters in Sustainable Business Transformation from CISL (Cambrige Univeristy Institute for Sustanability Leadership) which gave me the insights, depth of content and understanding I sought in the areas of sustainable financial reporting standards and the circular economy principles to provide relevant ideas and workable strategic solutions for businesses and organisations to succeed and thrive in a carbon-neutral and biodiverse world, providing an inclusive, diverse and equal workplace.I hope to inspire my generation of business leaders and managers to embrace change and adapt their businesses and strategies to be part of the solution and not the problem. We owe it to our children and grandchildren to sort this out as, in reality, we are the generation who have created these problems and ignored them for too long.
