From assessing the raw materials, reclaiming nearly a billion pounds of carpet, and reducing their carbon footprint, Shaw continues to be a sustainability leader. Kellie Ballew, the company’s new vice president of global sustainability, is spearheading efforts to help ensure wellness for people and the planet.
Ballew’s role is a crucial one, as Shaw balances commerce and stewardship in the midst of a global pandemic. “My personal responsibility is to have a keen eye and ear to the marketplace, to bring insights to our businesses across the enterprise, both residential and commercial. I have to be mindful of the socio-economic and political currents that are impacting the collective psyche.”
