Yann has helped many of the world’s largest organizations become more competitive through a better understanding and management of societal costs and risks. He does so not in lofty terms but rather with “down to earth” methods that express environmental and social issues in terms that business professionals in procurement, product development or sales can use every day.

Prior to Aligned Incentives, Yann was the founder and Managing Director of the Environmental Business Intelligence group at Enviance. This group was the fastest growing group in the company, doubling in size every year from launch to the company’s sale to Battery Ventures. Before that Yann’s work included co-founding a consulting firm with late management thinker C.K. Prahalad in the US and India, working as a McKinsey project leader in the US, Finland, Singapore and Australia,  serving as a United Nations Director, working as a Volkswagen executive in Germany, China, Mexico and the US and serving in the French Foreign service (military service).

Yann graduated from Harvard Business School, with a focus on Business and the Environment. He lectures at UC Berkeley and other universities. He is half French, half Austrian, and grew up in the Congo where he spent a lot of time living for extended periods in remote villages doing documentaries on social and environmental issues. Yann lives with his wife and 2 boys in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Craig has spent his career working with organizations to identify initiatives that make sustainability actionable, cost effective and relevant to stakeholders. His diverse experience spans across the government and industry sectors, operating at the nexus between business, public policy, social responsibility, and the environment. A passionate innovator, Craig is continually developing new frameworks, methods and tools that help government and industry clients implement actionable sustainability strategies that are based on data-driven supply chain, operations, and product use assessments. Among multiple tools and methods, Craig is the primary developer of guidance and supporting cloud-based software that helps acquisition officers in the Department of Defense, owner of the world’s largest and most complicated supply chain, quickly understand the financial and impact tradeoffs associated with proposed design alternatives for defense systems.

Prior to Aligned Incentives, Craig was the Director of Decision Analytics at Enviance, where he managed a broad portfolio of sustainability-related projects that drew upon sophisticated analytics to quickly and cost-effectively quantify business impacts and risks in financial terms. While at Enviance, he completed product assessments and developed actionable procurement and operational strategies for clients in the aerospace and defense, financial, tobacco, and food and beverage industries. Previously, Craig was a sustainability consultant in the defense industry and government policy analyst for multiple federal agencies. Craig has a M.S. in Sustainable Systems and a Master of Public Policy (M.P.P.) from the University of Michigan.  He lives with his wife, son, and daughter in the Washington, DC metro area.
