Sustainable and regenerative develop must make business sense, to have any appeal in the private sector. This understanding began in her childhood.\r\n\r\nRaised on sustainably operated cattle ranches in the state of Missouri, Andrea developed a deep appreciation for sustainable systems from an early age. Her SHERPA Institute students are all familiar with her story about bottle raising a Charolais bull calf, orphaned on the first of April, whom she named after that month. Always a champion for the underdog, Andrea saved April the bull from becoming a steer the following spring and went on to show him at the State Fair.\u00a0 Food security, agricultural innovations and ethical animal husbandry remain key passions to this day. She completed her bachelor\u2019s degree from Clemson University in Language and International Trade and earned her master\u2019s degree in Sustainability at Harvard.\r\n\r\nHer Master\u2019s Thesis began research in the impacts of individual social responsibility (iSR) commitments. She found that the more dissatisfied someone is with their employer\u2019s focus on social responsibility issues, the higher the likelihood they can morally disengage; that is, do bad things and live with themselves. Her thesis introduced the term iSR to the field and presents evidence that corporations should seek to understand and satisfy the social responsibility commitments of their employees.\u00a0 She continues to pursue research in this area, and advocating alignment of iSR-CSR with corporate leaders.\r\n\r\nAndrea is co-author of \u201cA Six Sigma Approach to Sustainability: Continual Improvement for Social Responsibility\u201d, with Dr. Holly Duckworth.\u00a0 Published by CRC Press Taylor and Francis Group, this book introduced the CISR (sounds like scissor) Methodology, used in organizations of all sizes and types around the world to improve social responsibility performance. This seminal book provides guidance in how to use ISO 26000 International Standard for Social Responsibility; given that it was published without certification. Hoffmeier is also joining Duckworth and Moore in writing the second edition of \u201cSocial Responsibility Failure Modes Effects and Analysis\u201d (SR-FMEA), also a CRC Press Taylor and Francis Group publication.\r\n\r\nIn her spare time, she raises backyard free-range chickens who are poorly guarded by her Great Pyrenees puppy, Jack. An advocate for extending remote working as we approach the \u201cnew-normal\u201d, Andrea\u2019s cat, Coco has been a Pandemic Zoom star. She listens mostly to singer-song-writers in the Outlaw Country music genre, and is an artist in various mediums, from sculpture to painting.\u00a0 Andrea enjoys gardening, mindfulness and yoga practice; she believes grounding the body, raising consciousness and achieving self-realization are the big goals of our lives.","link":"http:\/\/3.131.116.215\/ra\/sherpainstitute_stagenew\/author\/andreah\/","slug":"andreah","avatar_urls":{"24":"http:\/\/3.131.116.215\/ra\/sherpainstitute_stagenew\/wp-content\/uploads\/pp-avatar\/7647298b7ca85e2452d4bfc224042f7c.jpg","48":"http:\/\/3.131.116.215\/ra\/sherpainstitute_stagenew\/wp-content\/uploads\/pp-avatar\/7647298b7ca85e2452d4bfc224042f7c.jpg","96":"http:\/\/3.131.116.215\/ra\/sherpainstitute_stagenew\/wp-content\/uploads\/pp-avatar\/7647298b7ca85e2452d4bfc224042f7c.jpg"},"meta":[],"yoast_head":"\nAndrea Hoffmeier, Author at Sherpa Institute<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"http:\/\/3.131.116.215\/ra\/sherpainstitute_stagenew\/author\/andreah\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"profile\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Andrea Hoffmeier, Author at Sherpa Institute\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"http:\/\/3.131.116.215\/ra\/sherpainstitute_stagenew\/author\/andreah\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Sherpa Institute\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"http:\/\/3.131.116.215\/ra\/sherpainstitute_stagenew\/wp-content\/uploads\/pp-avatar\/7647298b7ca85e2452d4bfc224042f7c.jpg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"http:\/\/3.131.116.215\/ra\/sherpainstitute_stagenew\/#website\",\"url\":\"http:\/\/3.131.116.215\/ra\/sherpainstitute_stagenew\/\",\"name\":\"Sherpa Institute\",\"description\":\"Sherpa Institute\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"http:\/\/3.131.116.215\/ra\/sherpainstitute_stagenew\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"ProfilePage\",\"@id\":\"http:\/\/3.131.116.215\/ra\/sherpainstitute_stagenew\/author\/andreah\/#webpage\",\"url\":\"http:\/\/3.131.116.215\/ra\/sherpainstitute_stagenew\/author\/andreah\/\",\"name\":\"Andrea Hoffmeier, Author at Sherpa Institute\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"http:\/\/3.131.116.215\/ra\/sherpainstitute_stagenew\/#website\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"http:\/\/3.131.116.215\/ra\/sherpainstitute_stagenew\/author\/andreah\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"http:\/\/3.131.116.215\/ra\/sherpainstitute_stagenew\/author\/andreah\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"http:\/\/3.131.116.215\/ra\/sherpainstitute_stagenew\/author\/andreah\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"http:\/\/3.131.116.215\/ra\/sherpainstitute_stagenew\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Archives for Andrea Hoffmeier\"}]},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"http:\/\/3.131.116.215\/ra\/sherpainstitute_stagenew\/#\/schema\/person\/20a4e526288d70ba23e3f37aa640abf0\",\"name\":\"Andrea Hoffmeier\",\"image\":{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"@id\":\"http:\/\/3.131.116.215\/ra\/sherpainstitute_stagenew\/#personlogo\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"url\":\"http:\/\/3.131.116.215\/ra\/sherpainstitute_stagenew\/wp-content\/uploads\/pp-avatar\/7647298b7ca85e2452d4bfc224042f7c.jpg\",\"contentUrl\":\"http:\/\/3.131.116.215\/ra\/sherpainstitute_stagenew\/wp-content\/uploads\/pp-avatar\/7647298b7ca85e2452d4bfc224042f7c.jpg\",\"caption\":\"Andrea Hoffmeier\"},\"description\":\"Educator, researcher and social scientist, Andrea Hoffmeier is Co-Founder of the nonprofit SHERPA Institute and Series Editor for the UN SDG Corporate Guidebook Series.\\u00a0 With over three decades of experience in marketing, product development, innovation, training and organizational excellence, her personal mission is to engage professionals in every field, in all industries to advance the principles and subjects of social responsibility, sustainability and regenerative development.\\u00a0 In other words, Andrea seeks to engage private sector professionals to create A WORLD WE ALL WANT!
