Cambridge Institute for Sustainability Leadership (CISL)

With a background in high school teaching, working with non-profit organisations and a significant chapter as a social investment specialist in a corporate and investment bank, Yvette’s interest in sustainability has grown alongside her experience of different sectors and silos – and the people in all of them, who make change happen. Her facilitation style helps to level the playing field and connect people, so we can be more creative and find better solutions, together.
