JIB ELLISON
Founder & CEO, Blu Skye
Jib Ellison leads a team of strategy experts who work with Fortune 500 companies to transform markets – and create new ones. His process is premised upon using sustainability to reveal new market opportunities, engage senior management and employees, and leverage his considerable network of experts to do well by doing good. In this way, Ellison and his team expand conventional definitions of value, opportunity, and change. His recent clients include Hilton, Microsoft, SC Johnson, Sony Pictures, Staples, Walmart, and Waste Management.
When Ellison founded Blu Skye in 2003, sustainability was uncharted territory to the 21st-century corporate executive. He wanted to change mindsets, all while shifting the consulting paradigm. For nearly two decades, Ellison has led clients along the sustainability pathway and toward a new wave of regeneration. He serves on the Advisory Board of the Corporate Eco Forum, an invitation-only membership organization for large companies that demonstrate a serious commitment to the environment as a business strategy issue.
Ellison enjoys serving on the Advisory Boards of Conservacion Patagonica and Corporate Eco Forum, running the Russian River, and riding his bike through Dry Creek Valley.
