CHEManager: As Global Sustainability Director at Dow, what drives your personal passion for advancing sustainability and circular economy initiatives, and how do your own values and experiences influence your approach to transformative change within the company?

Haley Lowry: As the Global Sustainability Director for Dow’s Packaging and Specialty Plastics business, I help integrate environmental goals with our commercial goals by driving circularity at scale and transforming our business into what the market wants and the world needs.

I lead projects to convert materials from waste to value, driving innovation and investment to create new technology that scales the circular life of plastics.
