Lee Stewart Bio
I am one of the very few sustainability consultants who has over 20 years' experience including working for billion-dollar multinational companies. I am now on a mission to help others and support businesses to become a force for good whilst also being profitable. Below is my book preface on "Why I Wrote How to Build Sustainability into Your Business Strategy." Many individuals can go through their entire professional career without discovering their true purpose. After years of working, they may reflect on their accomplishments and question if it was all worthwhile. Did their work solely focus on increasing profits for their company by selling more products or services?
What if they had found a way to leverage their expertise and knowledge to benefit society and the environment earlier in their career? By understanding your "why", you can harness a powerful tool that keeps you motivated and on track during challenging times. Personally, I have spent years refining my purpose, and it ultimately comes down to having a greater sense of meaning in my work. My purpose is twofold: to provide financial security for my family and to make a positive impact on the world. Despite many moments of doubt and uncertainty, where I questioned if my work was just greenwashing or focused on profits over sustainability, I have consistently strived to improve sustainability outcomes in every role I have held.
Over time, my "why" has evolved, and now, as a father of three, I am more determined than ever to make a difference in the world. Understanding the bigger picture and the role I can play in creating a better future is a powerful driver that keeps me focused and motivated to succeed. Drawing from my own journey through the trials and triumphs of global corporate roles, this book, How to Build Sustainability into Your Business Strategy, is born from the bruises, frustrations, and burnout. It's more than a guidebook. It’s my obsession to help individuals seek deeper meaning in their careers and to enlighten businesses on the practical steps to seize the sustainability opportunity of our time.
