ABOUT JOHN F. SHERMAN
NB: All posts and comments are my own and don\'t necessarily reflect the views of any other person or entity.I am a leading authority on business and human rights, particularly on its implications for legal practice. I joined the late Prof John Ruggie’s core UN mandate team in 2008 after a long career as deputy general counsel for National Grid. As his senior legal advisor, I helped him draft and shape the 2011 UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights. In 2011, I helped him launch Shift, the leading center for expertise on the UNGPs and served as its general counsel and senior advisor for the next twelve years. I continue to advise lawyers, bar associations, and other entities on practicing law with respect for human rights. My undergraduate degree is from Dartmouth College and my law degree is from Harvard Law School.
