About Terry Yosie

Terry Yosie Biography

The World Environment Center (WEC) has had Terry F. Yosie as its president and chief executive officer since October 2006. His primary duties include creating and implementing plans to enhance commercial responses to sustainability issues. WEC has established key capabilities in supply chain management, innovation, and training the following generation of sustainability professionals throughout his leadership. The United States Department of State, the United Nations Environmental Program, and many other international stakeholders have praised WEC's efforts. Dr. Yosie has experience in top management roles for businesses, governments, and consulting firms. From 1999 until 2005, he was vice president of the American Chemistry Council, where he led efforts to improve the chemical sector's environmental, health, safety, and security performance. To enhance the performance of the chemical business in 52 countries, he oversaw a worldwide CEO Task Force in 2004–2005 that created the Responsible Care Global Charter. As a sector representative, he attended the Johannesburg U.N. World Summit on Sustainable Development in 2002. Dr. Yosie oversaw the environmental management and communications practices at Ruder Finn Washington from 1992 to 1999 while serving as the company's executive vice president. Her clientele included BASF, British Petroleum, Pfizer, and Philips Electronics. He provided B.P. with climate change advice, so then-CEO John Browne announced a new strategy in 1997. From 1988 until 1992, Dr. Yosie held the position of Vice President for Health and Environment at the American Petroleum Institute. In this role, he oversaw the industry's successful negotiations with the EPA, state and municipal agencies, and environmental organizations to reach cleaner fuel standards that influenced over $40 billion in refining investments. Dr. Yosie worked for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Science Advisory Board from 1978 to 1988, where he also held the position of Director from 1981 to 1988. In this capacity, he advised EPA Administrators and the U.S. Congress on the scientific foundations for environmental and public health choices. He also implemented rules and processes to strengthen the technical foundation for EPA-wide policy decisions. He participated in the bilateral ecological program with the Soviet Union as a representative of the United States and negotiated several agreements with that nation. Dr. Yosie is the co-editor of a book titled Sustainable Environmental Management and the author of more than 70 professional papers. He has delivered lectures at Carnegie Mellon University, Dartmouth College, Duke University, Harvard University, and others, and has written several studies on sustainability strategy and management. He earned his Ph.D. in 1981 from Carnegie Mellon University's Dietrich College of Humanities and Social Sciences, and in 2013 he was given the university's Alumni Achievement Award.
