Grants and Operations Manager Receives Professional Certificate in Sustainable Business Practices

Mary Lyons-Richards, the Foundation’s grants and operations manager, recently received a professional certificate in sustainable business practice after completing the “Leading the Sustainability Transformation” program through GreenBiz. This 10-week simulation-based program had participants from around the world. There were three components: introducing core sustainability concepts through self-paced modules; a team simulation transforming a conventional business into a sustainable enterprise over a 20-year period; and a peer-reviewed innovation project.
