- The nature of "compliance has changed, growing beyond regulatory requirements to include legal/contractual requirements, industry standards and company commitments. Furthermore, these compliance requirements continue to grow in number and complexity. Company's programs, organization and staff, and auditing programs have not kept pace.
- Many functions are affected by environmental or sustainability issues. Lack of enterprise-wide understanding of roles, responsibilities and impacts can yield uncoordinated or incomplete efforts, excess costs, missed opportunities or increased risks.
- Climate change is a dynamic, critical issue with many critical (and moving) elements: Enterprise boundaries, baseline conditions, performance measurement, financial implications, regulatory environment(s), verification, and transparency will be substantial challenges. We have applied the COSO Enterprise Risk Management framework to climate change, and have developed a Climate Change Risk Assessment tool for Directors and Officers.
- There are many benefits to transparency, but there can also be advantages to maintaining some information confidential or as trade secret.
- Data collection, integrity, management, distribution and appropriate access is critical, but not universally understood.
- Customers, investors, employees and other stakeholders use a company's environmental performance to make decisions that have financial implacations. Environmental communications deserve rigor commensurate to its increasing profile.

My Network
I collaborate with associates who have experience with regulations, permitting, compliance, auditing programs, transaction support and other services.
Pro Bono Work
I am proud to contribute time and talent to Peoples' Park Initiative.
We provide ongoing donations and cook food, and feed the homeless on Skid Row in downtown Los Angeles. I have been involved with this group since 1992. I was surprised and delighted to receive the President’s Volunteer Service Award in November 2009 for my efforts.
