Bio
Chris Walkingshaw
I have worked closely with Cristiana for over 18 months on the development of our sustainability strategy for Motorsport UK. Her industry experience and specialist subject knowledge was key to informing our strategy and ensuring we maintained momentum to get it launched. I would highly recommend her in a similar role for other organisations and I look forward to continuing to work together moving forwards.

I met Cristiana in her early days and she has an incredible enthusiasm in what she does. She identify opportunities and continuous improvement to help her customers meet their sustainability goals and to secure and/or grow their business and meet their financial objectives. She provide guidance and sustainability expertise to her customer. Cristiana help the Customer to define sustainability, identify and prioritize strategic options for sustainable products/solutions, build internal capabilities and identify ways to create value. She has the talent to enter as part of Customer team and work and act suggesting strategies taking into account emerging customer needs, reputational and operational risks, industry trends, and in case corporate sustainability goals. then she is able to translate in practical way what is the plan. She is a real asset, and I cannot recommend her service more.
