Meet Joanne
You want to know about the woman who turned around a loss making student union into a profit making $10 million dollar business. The one who raised her first million in capital at 23 whilst drinking chardonnay. That was after I’d lived on 5 continents seeing first-hand what sustainability really was for people, planet and profit.
I’m a killer business women. I had my first computer before the internet was invented and was on the board of a $100 million dollar not-for-profit at 24 which was about 20 years younger than anyone else.
I’m a business mentor who gets results. I work with highly successful leaders. The ones who made it once and want to do so again – and this time, keep their soul.
I think great business is about money and meaning. It might be delivering a near billion dollar project that in the words of an IBM executive ‘that was a miracle’. Or being board advisor for an NGO whose ground breaking results are studied by the World Health Organisation for global rollout. Or enabling a business dedicated to sustainable growth – adding a billion dollars to profit while reducing impact on planet.
Really big companies make really big decisions. I ask question to get the right answers for your business because I see things beyond the obvious.
Sustainability is the big business challenge of our times.
This takes Greensight. If you are a leader looking to transform your business, transition to Net Zero and define the future of our world. Let’s talk. I work with people like you so that you achieve your goals. Sustainably.
Where are you at risk?
If you are in these industries, you should know I’m working with them. I’m advising them about the risks you might not be thinking about. And sustainability opportunities they had not realised they had.
My promise to you
When you reach out to me, I promise to help you thrive. As a chairman, CXO and human being. It’s about better decisions, ones that serve your business, your people and our planet. Connect with me. (LInkedIN)
