About Nia Rhodes
Leading Nike\'s charge for a greener tomorrow, my role as Global Director of Sustainability Engagement Initiates involves crafting a synergy between our planet and people strategy. This strategy not only aligns with our business objectives but also ensures social and community impact. With over a year\'s experience at Nike, my focus has been on developing programs that drive substantial environmental change.Previously, as Vice President of Programs at the New York League of Conservation Voters, my team and I elevated public engagement through strategic leadership, developing conservation forums and outreach campaigns. These initiatives supported municipalities in their journey towards Climate Smart Communities Certification, reflecting our commitment to policy enhancement for renewable energy and ecological preservation. My expertise lies in translating complex sustainability challenges into actionable frameworks, fostering not only environmental stewardship but also community resilience.
