Kyle Whitaker
Manager

We cannot approach today’s sustainability challenges with one-size-fits-all solutions. I hope that clients view SustainAbility as a valued partner above all else. We are eager to collaborate, to learn each client’s business, and to find the most effective strategies to meet their needs and ambitions.

Based in Washington, DC, Kyle works with SustainAbility clients including Cisco Systems and the Ford Motor Company. In addition to client engagements, Kyle is a member of SustainAbility’s accountability team, manages SustainAbility’s joint research program with GlobeScan, and is supporting the Rate the Raters research initiative. In the course of his career, Kyle has developed expertise in reporting and communications strategy, materiality analysis and stakeholder engagement.

Prior to joining SustainAbility, Kyle worked at Framework:CR, where he consulted on sustainability strategy and communications for such clients as Citigroup, Seventh Generation and Symantec. Previously, Kyle also conducted community investment research for Innovest Strategic Value Advisors (now part of RiskMetrics) and worked as a program assistant for the State of Wisconsin, addressing emergency management and homeland security issues.
