GO Initiatives’ combination of design approach, sustainability expertise, and overall business skills has advanced our journey in sustainability. The work GOi has done and their ability to work with a variety of people in different functional areas has allowed for a broad and yet consistent approach to our sustainability commitment.
-Dan Miller,
Executive Vice President,
President Furniture Kimball International
When Georgy and I worked closely together on one of the first Silver LEED projects in Texas back in 2000, little was known about the USGBC or LEED. But she led the company we worked for, Teknion, to become the first to achieve GREENGUARD Certification for indoor air quality of all products and establish their reputation for sustainability business practice in the industry.
-Donna Powell,
Senior Sales Associate, Knoll
GO Initiatives didn't simply provide an opinion and high level theory; they delivered results quickly through their actions and leadership. GOi moved us five times faster than any other corporate initiative. The resulting work, the formalization of our sustainability strategy, was worth every penny.

I have known and worked with Georgy Olivieri for over ten years. Together, we engaged Teknion in support of the value of design and specifier markets.
