Manageable and Meaningful Change with Jane Abernethy at Humanscale

When it comes to creating manageable and meaningful change at a grand scale, sometimes the businesses you least expect can be the most forward-thinking. Cue Jane Abernethy, Chief Sustainability Officer at Humanscale.

Having begun her career as a designer, Jane recognised how design could directly impact both human and environmental health. At Humanscale, an award-winning designer of ergonomic office furniture, Jane has helped redefine the furniture industry’s standard when it comes to materials, waste management, and energy usage.

Jane shares her own career journey and offers invaluable insight into how a large-scale business can change course to become a leader in sustainability.
