After a “career mid-life crisis,” Cindy Tam found her true purpose: supporting organizations on their ESG (environmental, social, and governance) journeys. Tune in for an informal chat between Cindy and Slalom’s head of R&D, Dave Uhler. They share their personal connections to sustainability, discuss the thorny question of measurement, and reflect on how simple, small changes can lead to bigger impacts.

Featured guest: Cindy Tam, Director, Global ESG

Host: Dave Uhler, Head of Research and Development

Episode Highlights: 

  • Globally, organizations are ramping up their ESG efforts to grow new capabilities and responsibly manage resources to foster their triple top and bottom lines: people, planet, and profit. In this episode of Slalom On Air, we hear directly from the Slalom team members supporting them.
  • What happens when our head of research and development gets together with a global ESG director to look at this topic? Real talk! Two Slalom leaders share what sparked their interest in sustainability. They’re also candid about the small changes they’re making in their personal lives: Cindy is exploring more plant-based eating, Dave is looking to curtailing business travel.
  • Cindy and Dave unpack what sustainability and the bigger ESG equation can mean for business leaders. Get Cindy’s perspective on why ESG is a tool, not an outcome, and learn why Dave is a big fan of starting with ‘I don’t know.’
