I have been interested in environmental topics for a few years now and started making changes personally to reduce my carbon footprint. First actions concerned waste reduction and buying local. I was also keen to initiate the same sort of actions in professional life and a first opportunity came up with the preparation of the yellow belt level in the company where I worked before. It showed that lean management is a first step towards eco-efficiency by optimizing company processes resulting in reduction of waste and resources preservation. This experience motivated me to work in eco-efficiency. Joining the start-up Physis-Solutions will provide a new challenge to support companies identifying and controling the environmental impact related to their business.
