BISWIRE/Sept. 26, 2023 — Sustainable Investment Group (SIG) is thrilled to announce that Asa Posner, Vice President of Sales, has been recognized as a 2023 LEED Fellow by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) and GBCI. This prestigious designation celebrates Asa's remarkable journey in sustainability, LEED, and green building services.

For nearly 15 years, Asa Posner has passionately championed sustainability, leaving an indelible mark on the green building industry. As a Vice President at SIG, he's done much more than meet clients: he's been a driving force in fostering sustainability in the built environment.

He's led the charge on over 220 LEED projects, certifying an astonishing 70 million square feet of LEED-certified space. His expertise extends across various facets of sustainability, earning him LEED Accredited Professional status in Building Design + Construction (BD+C) and Operations + Maintenance (O+M).

But Asa's impact goes beyond bricks and mortar. He's been a beacon of knowledge, guiding over 1,000 professionals through earning their LEED Green Associate and LEED AP BD+C credentials through his work with Green Building Education Systems (www.gbes.com).

Leadership at SIG:

Asa Posner's leadership at Sustainable Investment Group (SIG) is a testament to his dedication to advancing sustainability. He embarked on his LEED consulting career in 2008 and has been an integral part of SIG for over a decade. His role has seen him successfully run high-quality LEED projects including major stadiums like U.S. Bank Stadium and convention centers like Georgia World Congress Center, while also providing LEED exam prep training, mentoring colleagues, and leading SIG's sales team.

Asa's career is a story of unwavering commitment. He's not just an expert; he's a visionary who actively engages in thought leadership through speaking, workshops, presentations, and panels. His expertise extends far and wide, covering LEED consulting, WELL consulting, energy modeling, daylight modeling, LCAs, and commissioning/retro-commissioning.

 "I've always been passionate about the environment and the outdoors,” said Asa, “My career path and passion for improving the built environment materialized in 2008 when I witnessed firsthand how human activity, especially urbanization, affected natural ecosystems. It was at that very moment that my journey began. I've spent nearly 15 years championing green building design, construction, and operations, with LEED as the foundation. Having led LEED certification efforts for over 220 projects and 70M sf, achieving LEED Fellow is a privilege and an honor. I'm proud to be a leader in the green building movement, educate the next wave of green building professionals, and contribute to a more sustainable future."

The 2023 LEED Fellows will be recognized on Thursday, Sept. 28, at this year's Greenbuild International Conference and Expo.
