About Alana Libow
I am an award-winning and intrapreneurial sustainability strategist and experience designer with over 15 years of experience leading transformative initiatives. My passion lies in crafting high-impact, multi-stakeholder convenings and cross-sector collaborations that activate breakthrough thinking and systemic change.My work has humbly taken me from boardrooms to community tables, cultivating relationships with Indigenous and farming communities and global organizations, including Danone, Deloitte, the Rockefeller Foundation, The Navajo Nation, and the UNDP. I thrive and specialize in managing complexity—whether it’s navigating geographically diverse teams or bringing together actors who don’t traditionally collaborate.While partnering with C-Suites, boards, governments, non-profits, or community groups, I take pride in nurturing teams and sparking innovation. I bring an unwavering dedication and rare understanding of diverse stakeholders, enabling alignment of visions and mutually beneficial outcomes. At heart, I’m a visionary connector and a catalyst for change, blending brave strategic vision with operational excellence. If you’re seeking a leader who thrives on driving systemic transformation with people and purpose at the center, let’s connect. Together, we can bridge the Sustainable Development Goals gap and develop solutions, thinking, and behaviors critically needed in our world today.
