#148 Sheri-Leigh Miles - Playing around at the edges
Sunday, 3 October, 2021
#148 Sheri-Leigh Miles - Playing around at the edges Sheri-Leigh talks to us about the joy of playing around at the edges. We talk about: The power of making sure you're doing what you enjoy. Knowing environmental science was her thing, before it was a thing. And learning all she needs to know about rocks in a week! Sheri-Leigh is Co-Founder and Director of NETpositive Futures. She helps organisations, teams and networks understand how sustainability links to organisational excellence. Her Master's degree is in Education for Sustainability and her career has focused on learning and education in its broadest sense. She was involved in the development of the UKs first sector-level sustainability strategies and spent 7 years on the Board of the Environmental Association of Universities and Colleges alongside her main role as part of the award-winning Ecoversity team at the University of Bradford, the first whole-institution sustainability engagement programme in the UK. She was invited to become a Fellow of the RSA (Royal Society for the encouragement of Arts, Manufactures and Commerce) in 2018 in recognition of her sustainability work in the education sector. She teaches sustainability on Newcastle University Business School's Executive Education programmes as a visiting lecturer and collaborates with the team on an innovative project to embed the Sustainable Development Goals into their programme. She is also Director of a Social Enterprise and Worker's Co-operative called 4Seasons which supports individuals who are differently able to 'live the life they choose', primarily through supported employment linked to the outdoors. She has recently become an 'accidental software developer' and her current focus is based around the NETpositive Software developed to support sustainability engagement across complex organisations.
