Bio

I am a sustainability consultant with The Living Business, specializing in sustainable systems, products and services design. I help companies design and implement sustainability and corporate social responsibility strategies and programs based on nature's design principles so that ultimately they can learn, adapt, grow and evolve like a living system or organism. I give talks on "The Principle of Sustainable Design". If you'd like to see my presentation, just ask! By combining human innovation and intellectual capital with nature's genius, we can achieve "Sheer Greenius"! I work to illuminate businesses to the limitless possibilities of sustainability and innovative design. As markets crumble and giants fall, now is the time to embark on a journey of sustainability inspired by the guru of green. We’ve already been cast into uncertainty, why not take a chance and fly, but this time with birds and dandelion seeds as inspiration?(!) I am also the Program Director for the Federated Conservationists of Westchester County, Inc. a non profit environmental education and advocacy organization founded in 1965. Feel free to contact me: (914) 422-4053, or Adiel@TheLivingBusiness.com

Private, Sole Proprietor employees, Consulting industry

Businesses can gain competitive advantage, and mitigate risk by incorporating nature’s sustainable, innovative, and aggressive systems design principles into their corporate DNA. The answers to your most pressing questions and business challenges are just outside your door. True sustainability does not come in the form of an easy to do, check off list. Rather, it is a long term value that is achieved through holistic integration of the principles of sustainable design, transparency and disclosure in all actions, and a deep understanding of sustainability as a beacon of hope and unlimited possibilities. At the end of the day, businesses and individuals can ask themselves one question to determine true “greenness”: “Does my system, product, service, purchase, or my choice help to create conditions conducive to life?"
