ABLE TO TACKLE THE UNCOMFORTABLE CONVERSATIONS
“ I have had the pleasure of working in Andrew's team for close to 3 years. Andrew is an exceptional leader. Andrew wants to understand, so he listens, dives into content and brings attention to diverse views before forming his opinion. Andrew cares deeply for the people around him and lifts them up through coaching and trust.
Andrew believes in regenerative leadership, leadership that challenges the status quo and is able to tackle the uncomfortable conversations we need, to create a world and do business within the limits of our planet. Andrew understands and speaks the language of business, he rolls up his sleeves and gets things done.”

UNDERSTANDING COMMERCIAL BUSINESS + EVERYDAY CHALLENGES
“Working with Andrew for a couple of years in the IKEA sustainability matrix structure was a great experience. From the first to the last moment he acted as a dream leader to all of us sustainability managers in the countries all over the IKEA world.
He is passionate about making the world a better place, curious to know and execute more on sustainable KPIs, bringing together his understanding of commercial business, sustainability and everyday challenges.
He could always support with advice, recommendations and proper tools.
Andrew built his credibility on true impactful behaviour and decisions (not always easy), and is also privately an engaged activist for regenerative farming....
He represents 'walk the talk' indeed!”
