About Dimitri Shanin

My mission is to make an impact by monetizing the business value streams created by sustainability that benefit customers, improve operational margins, mitigate business and compliance risks, and empower employees.Here are the core principles of how I approach my work:Results Driven – commitment and work ethic to meet organizational goals and customer expectations. I strive to make decisions that produce high-quality results by applying technical knowledge, analyzing costs and financial upside, anticipating challenges and mitigating risks.Leading Change – consistent ability to bring about strategic, meaningful change, within and outside the organization, to meet complex organizational goals. Inherent to this is my ability to establish common organizational vision supported by measurable goals, to secure executive leadership buy-in and commitment to implement it in a continuously changing, ambiguous matrix environment.Business Acumen – innovative approach to managing human, financial, and information resources effectively, paired with strategic mindset to drive financial growth, maintain innovative approach, mitigate risks and meet long-term strategic objectives.Leading People – strong ethical sense to provide an inclusive workplace that fosters cooperation and teamwork, and to support personal and professional development of all team members. This mindset is paired with ability to inspire others within organization to make measurable progress towards achieving economic and social sustainability.Building Coalitions - proven ability to build coalitions internally and externally, with suppliers, government agencies, nonprofit and private sector partners, and international organizations to achieve common goals. This global mindset has allowed me to propose and implement innovative closed loop, financially sound process improvements that succeeded through cooperation and strong partnerships.
