BU BÖLÜM HAKKINDA
Jeffrey D. Stewart, founder and executive director of Enharmonic Encounters, joins Kim Allchurch Flick. Enharmonic Encounters helps companies measure impact and amplifies non-English speaking stakeholders through language access.
Stewart describes becoming the first company in the United States to certify under B Lab’s new standards (V2) and explains the need for real case studies to show compliance is possible across company sizes.
He traces his path from a Fulbright experience in Brazil to working at B Lab as a Portuguese-speaking analyst certifying over 100 companies, then launching a translation practice combined with B certification consulting.
They discuss global versus local impacts, the growing need for language access amid B Lab’s global consolidation, and key V2 updates including required climate action planning, continuous improvement mechanisms, equity integrated across standards, and higher-level governance buy-in, as well as early challenges setting qualitative climate SMART goals.
