Leo Stranius Appointed Head of Sustainable Future at T-Media

Leo Stranius, who holds a Master’s degree in Public Administration, has joined T-Media Relations Oy as a partner and will begin working for the company as Director of Sustainable Future on October 1, 2019. Stranius is moving to T-Media from his position as Executive Director of Kansalaisareena. Previously, he has worked as the Executive Director of the Finnish Nature League and the Finnish Association for Nature Conservation, as well as a corporate consultant.

Stranius is building the future of sustainability services at T-Media.

“Companies are rapidly realizing that the climate crisis and other environmental factors are already shaping business. But this is only the beginning of the transition toward a carbon-neutral 1.5-degree society,” Stranius says. “There is enormous potential in corporate operations to mitigate environmental impact. I want to do my part to help organizations move in the right direction. T-Media’s understanding of responsibility, reputation, and the principles of business provides an excellent foundation for this work.”

More and more is expected of companies. Over 200,000 individual company reviews from T-Media’s Reputation&Trust, conducted since 2013, show that customers and other stakeholders are thinking more carefully about the kinds of companies they want to do business with. Companies perceived as responsible are often the market winners.

“In a changing world, business leaders need real experts to support their decision-making,” says Jirimiko Oranen, CEO and partner at T-Media Relations Oy. “With Leon, we are even better equipped to help our clients plan for a future-proof business.”

Earlier, in August 2018, Sari Kuvaja joined T-Media Relations Oy as a partner and head of sustainability services. The business-focused, data-driven approach to sustainability development has been well received by the executive teams of T-Media’s client companies.

“These appointments are just the beginning,” says Oranen. “We are putting together a dream team for business-driven sustainability. Our mission is to help our customers succeed by fostering even better relationships with their environment and stakeholders.”
