"I've known Sandy for nearly a decade through both our professional networks & affiliations and by engaging Sandy as ESG counsel for large purpose-driven campaigns throughout my career. Sandy has expertise driving progress across key environmental and social issues, but what makes her unique is her equally skilled ability in communications and stakeholder engagement. Even as our industry continues to grow, Sandy's voice remains a strong and influential one. She has always pushed leaders in the space to think without limits - which is critically needed to achieve progress - whether we're tackling climate change or driving DEI&B. She is also always part of the solution through her own leadership or by making valuable connections. Sandy's knowledge on the issues clearly comes through in Purposeful Brands but what makes this book so valuable and different from others in the genre is that in addition to helping make the business case, Sandy offers actionable steps that can be taken to advance your brand on its ESG journey. The book is engaging, easy to read and provides a true masterclass on building the purpose-driven brand of the future. I highly recommend it!"
