Our Stories
Articles, interviews, and podcasts featuring today's trends and personalities in sustainability.
The past year has seen a flurry of climate, sustainability, and ESG reporting regulations enacted in both the US and the EU.
"Blu Skye helped Tompkins Conservation focus on completing major projects at a very tense period in our organization’s history. The Blu Skye team worked along side our teams in three countries, which built trust and enabled coordinated action resulting in the creation of millions of acres of new national parks in Chile and Argentina. Jib Ellison is an ally of the first order.”
“As the Sustainable Apparel Coalition’s first employee, I worked intimately with the Blu Skye team in helping stand up the organization. Blu Skye brings this rare mix of facilitation, project management, stakeholder engagement and governance, and content expertise that’s essential for any multi-stakeholder initiative. They really set me and the SAC members up for long-term success.”
“I continue to be impressed with Blu Skye’s passion, knowledge and commitment to drive the sustainability efforts of the Sustainable Apparel Coalition; their ability to facilitate such a diverse group of companies effectively and efficiently is World Class!!”
“Very few firms could pull off what Blu Skye did for REBA in such a short time with one client, let alone four NGOs. By the end of the project, we had the organizational momentum and trusted relationships that set us up for long-term success. I’ve worked with Blu Skye on many projects with many organizations. They are truly unparalleled in their ability to build trust between stakeholders with seemingly opposing perspectives, and drive consensus when ambiguity is dominant. Their approach and processes are the winning ingredient, and their sustainability subject matter expertise is simply a bonus."
"There are now hundreds of consulting organizations that will help businesses change their internal and external practices towards sustainable outcomes. Sustainability is an "ability," but it cannot be brought about piecemeal, nor is it a fix. It is a fundamental change in business practice and Blu Skye brings deeply honed skills to create this shift. It creates the conditions for systemic change in large organizations and then opens up its considerable networks of possibility. Sustainability represents the only way business will survive; an opportunity exists for those who can grasp it earliest and act with the most understanding. This change can only be brought when people change. It is not a belief, but a perception, and Blu Skye creates a matrix of change better than any group I know."
"Through their skills and passion for creating big change through industry collaboration, Blu Skye has played an essential role in the creation of the Sustainable Apparel Coalition and development of the Apparel Sustainability Index."
"Blu Skye gets my nod as the best consulting firm in the world in making good on Peter Drucker's premonition that "every social and global issue of our day is a business opportunity" -- given the right conditions for innovation, pragmatism, and an enterprise-wide alignment of strengths. It’s a thrill to hit that mutual sweet spot of building a better world and realizing huge new business opportunities. Blu Skye is helping to make history in the field of sustainable value innovation and they are doing it with a humility and collaborative approach that brings out the best in the people and businesses they are working with."
"For me [the system-in-the-room summit] sparked three real new opportunities. I got more done in 2.5 days than I could have accomplished in a couple of years."
“We worked with Blu Skye to bring teams from across our business together and create a strategy for our sustainability goals. Their perspective and ability to facilitate a collaborative process was paramount in how we were able to set ourselves up for success. The work we did with them is the foundation for what you see today through our ‘re-imagined’ program at J.Crew and ‘do well’ at Madewell.”
“Blu Skye helped us navigate a technically complex project with disparate stakeholders by bringing clarity, structure, and expertise to the table. We wouldn’t have gotten as far as quickly as we did without their partnership.”
