Ibrahim AlHusseini on the Rosenzweig Report

I am passionate about positive change, especially when it comes to the environment, women’s rights and humanity in general. I like to surround myself with change-makers who identify problems and set out to make things better. That’s why I invited Jay Rosenzweig to join the Advisory Board of our investment company FullCycle, which invests in climate restoration technologies aimed at reversing the effects of climate change. For 20 years, Jay has been fighting to make the corporate world more diverse, more equitable, more inclusive. Numerous studies, from business schools to management consultant firms, show that more diversity and gender equality in boardrooms and executive offices improve company performance. Jay identified this fact long ago, but even more importantly understands the moral imperative of equality. When it comes to climate change, I often say: ‘Every single person on this planet is a stakeholder for what happens next.’ The same can be said in business about gender equality and inclusion and diversity. I’m honored to call him a friend and it says something hopeful that that I, a Palestinian American, and Jay, a Jewish Canadian can, work in harmony together and with such great mutual respect.
