Jeff Green

Jeff Green is Sustainability Advisor to OpenESG.com - the world's sustainability infrastructure.

Jeff has been at the forefront of bringing people together from all areas of society for over 30 years. One of those very rare people that "actually does stay in touch"; he has built up an enormous and highly influential personal network with one objective to motivate people to learn from diverse views thereby creating more ideas, more innovation and more profit for everyone. Currently, he is writing "Making the cake bigger" a book providing Business Leaders the tools to improve social mobility impact and achieving revenue growth through diversity.

As one of the very few ethnic people in the City in 1980's, Jeff has spent time around the world in Investment Management and Software and has seen first-hand the business value created by thinking differently. The overall impact of Jeff's work has been to open doors previously not considered possible such as Investment Asset Management, Insurance and Private Equity Software either as a role model himself or the recruitment of personnel into these sectors.

Today, he is an angel investor focussing on investing in Diverse Entrepreneurs which directly links to his leadership initiative - BalancedBoards. Here, his team recruit and place leaders from all backgrounds into Non Executive and Director positions in both listed and unlisted companies. This includes gender, ethnicity, faith, LGBT and social mobility diversity.
