John Mlade, Director of Sustainable & Healthy Environments, LFA, WELL Faculty, LEED Fellow, Sustainability is more than a job; it is a way of thinking. Having practiced in a dedicated sustainability role within design, engineering, consulting, and construction firms for the better part of two decades, John has developed a command of both the science and art of sustainable design and construction. Inspired most by the opportunities that emerge when addressing challenges through a lens of sustainability, he promotes positive change in his work through the engagement of people using tools for systems thinking, reflective conversation, and visioning. He is a process champion with the ability to bring together disparate stakeholders around a common vision, goals, and strategies without compromising technical rigor. Having chaired the Illinois Green Alliance Board of Directors from 2021-2023, and currently serving as Ex-Officio Chair through 2024, John is deeply involved in local and regional sustainability efforts around carbon drawdown, green infrastructure, EDI, resilience, and health and wellness to move rapidly beyond the “sustainability status quo.” Show Highlight
