For more than two decades, Sue has been leading the way in corporate sustainability reporting and disclosure.  From helping develop some of the field’s first award winning sustainability reports, to training early cohorts of sustainability reporting specialists, Sue has long been at the forefront of helping companies to develop the accountability mindset and skills that put them on the path to sustainability leadership.

Sue and I worked together on what became the District of West Vancouver’s inventory of our natural assets, which was one of the first municipal natural asset inventories done by a municipality in Canada. The inventory has been invaluable in moving the District’s sustainability strategy forward, and has helped us to focus on the many challenges in maintaining these assets. Her support through the process has been invaluable, and I do not think we could have moved this forward without her, and the work that she did.

For over a decade, Susan Todd has helped us at MEC evolve our sustainability reporting, strategy and stakeholder engagement. I value her multi-dimensional knowledge – she’s an expert in social and environmental reporting and also brings a financial background, a sharp strategic mind and an understanding of the business drivers. She is always a step ahead of the bigger issues and can help us quickly get to the core of what we need to consider. She is insightful, productive, connected and solution-oriented. I appreciate her professional candor and I know that she cares about the success of our organization.

Susan and her team have been instrumental in guiding Capstone through the constantly evolving changes in sustainability reporting. She provides outstanding service in developing our Sustainability Report each year and assisting the internal team in building in-house knowledge. Her accounting background is invaluable for our current phase of enhanced TCFD reporting.

Sue worked closely with us in the early days of social reporting, and helped to shape what has now become our award-winning accountability report. Sue's professionalism, thoroughness, and strategic thinking helped us to break new ground, improve our internal systems and processes, and ultimately our performance.

Susan Todd of Solstice Sustainability Works played an instrumental role in the development of Langley Township’s award-winning Social Sustainability Strategy. Susan provided unique insights into the challenges and opportunities facing the community, and identified context-appropriate actions to make progress on the priority areas. I truly appreciated the depth of Susan’s subject matter expertise, and her flexible approach to the strategic planning process.

Susan Todd led a dynamic team to help the City of Burnaby and its citizens develop the award-winning Burnaby Social Sustainability Strategy. Her creative community engagement strategy attracted the participation of almost 800 Burnaby citizens. In a fun, engaging, respectful and educational manner, Sue guided the Strategy Steering Committee through many challenges and milestones. She consistently demonstrated grace, flexibility, attention to detail and the ability to "think on her feet". Sue is a reflective, responsive and rigorous professional whose passion and commitment helped to establish Burnaby as a local government leader in social sustainability.

Sue Todd of Solstice developed an environmental management system which is now part of the DNA of our company. In doing so, she gave us perspective on a triple bottom line approach before the term even existed.

Sue was instrumental to me pursuing sustainability as a career. Having taken two SFU courses with Sue as my professor, she motivated me to think critically about the connection between business and sustainability. Sue enriched my learning with practical lessons, projects and assignments based on real ESG business challenges, and presentations from a diversity of guest speakers in the sustainability community. Leading by example, Sue inspires the next generation of sustainability changemakers through her dedication to education and has left a lasting impression on where I focus my career ambitions. Thank you for your humble leadership grounded in honesty, thoughtfulness, determination and enthusiasm!
