Birgit Vallmüür is a fresh voice in sustainability with her unique perspectives. Birgit has a rare mix of experience combining various different roles, including advisor to multinational companies and governments, senior positions in diplomatic settings, and academic expertise in management science, government and environmental ethics.
This has allowed her to create multiple novel fields of her own. She offers unique perspectives in sustainability and ESG for both businesses and governments to tackle the most crucial challenges facing humanity today. She encourages audiences to question who should lead the sustainability transformation and whether the current perspectives in sustainability leadership are sufficient to move us toward avoiding catastrophic climate change and ecosystem collapse. And if not, how to change that in a practical way that is also feasible.
Her career started in management consulting at Big4, followed by teaching management for half a decade at undergraduate and postgraduate levels. Back in 2011, she held a session on the values taught in business schools to faculties of eleven leading business schools in the world.
As a former senior civil servant, Dr. Vallmüür drafted a national foresight system for one of the most innovative and agile governments in the world – Estonia – and created a national base analysis for allocating €3.5 billion considering global future trends. She also developed and led the medium-term budget of that sovereign nation for close to half a decade.
Her following London-based work advising finance ministries globally from policy to transformation in another Big4 included working with the Finance Minister from Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Middle East.
In parallel, she researched tackling environmental crimes and supporting environmental law enforcement. Dr. Vallmüür holds a PhD in Government and Politics, and created the theory of green police integrity to tackle environmental crimes. Her related works have been published by leading academic publishers – Springer and Emerald.
During her sabbatical, she travelled extensively, including looking for polar bears in the High Arctic and orangutans in the rainforests of Borneo, hiking barefoot in the Swiss mountains, staying in a water village in Brunei, and frequented invitation-only tech-conferences where she spoke about the gadgets of nature.
Birgit is the creator of the corporate legacy approach to corporate impact and executive legacy perspective of sustainability leadership, and she advocates for broadening the categories of diversity, equity, and inclusion – to include chronotypes.
Her work in ESG has spanned from advising a government on her own sustainability consulting firm TitanSwan, to being a Founder Adviser to a climate-space startup and being on the Expert Advisory Council of a novel ESG and AI startup, and speaking at conferences internationally.
Keynotes by Birgit bring a fresh and unparalleled perspective as she has created multiple fields of her own. Her views are thought provoking, at times contrarian, always inspirational, and consistently empower people to take action.
