Anthesis Group makes strategic addition to North American leadership team with corporate sustainability pioneer Lisa Nelowet Grice

Boulder, January 10th 2018- Anthesis Group has expanded their market leadership presence in the corporate sustainability strategy and implementation space with the addition of Lisa Nelowet Grice as Managing Partner and member of the North America/Asia Pacific Management Board.

Lisa is globally known for engaging CEOs and senior teams to drive game-changing sustainability performance that delivers brand equity, operational efficiency, and stakeholder value. Lisa has over 30 years’ experience in creating and running successful sustainability practices, including VP for CH2M and most recently as Global Director of Sustainability Services for Ramboll.

Lisa’s work in Circular Economy, nominated for a 2017 Responsible Business Innovation award, includes developing a pioneering strategy for Merck KGaA’s Life Sciences business to credibly and cost-effectively position for entry into the multi-billion dollar green chemicals market. A pioneer in climate change mitigation and resilience, she has paved the way for hundreds of global companies, such as GM and United Technologies to inform EPA’s greenhouse gas strategy and reduce energy costs pursuing GHG reduction goals as a part of the ground-breaking Climate Leaders Program, which she created with the USEPA.

On her appointment Grice says: “What attracted me to Anthesis was the collaborative culture, as well as the focus on harnessing technology to deliver more effective solutions. I’m impressed with how the structure of the business ensures that the best Anthesis talent from around the world is available for any client challenge with no geographical barriers or boundaries.
