consciousconscience brings together Ceri Moodie’s background in accounting and financial markets as a former top-rated investment analyst in South Africa; and her insight and interest in how the investment community is confronting and rising to the challenges of some of the most critical issues of our time through Environmental; Social and Governance Investing; Impact Investing and Climate Investing. Having traversed much of the planet, from the Antarctic up to the Arctic, she is passionate about its preservation, and she brings independent thinking and an appreciation of the rights of all stakeholders. Ceri aims to enhance the understanding of leaders as to how the investing community is embracing their own responsibilities to these critical issues; and to highlight how corporates can espouse a considered and appropriate moral response that may positively impact a company’s valuation and ultimately its share price. As a professional business coach, she can also partner with individual leaders contemplating and confronting these weighty issues. Ceri has engaged with Directors; CEO’s; and senior business executives in leading South African listed companies over many years as an investment analyst; and through visiting global business operations in all corners of the world, she has assessed and reviewed business strategy; corporate resilience and earnings potential.

‘conscious’ and ‘Conscience’ derive from the same Latin roots—the prefix com- (“with,” “together,” “jointly”) and the verb scire (“to know”), and the combination, conscire, means “to be aware of guilt”—and both relate to a state of awareness, the first of a physical or mental wakefulness in which a person is aware of and responding to their surroundings; and the second of a person’s moral awareness of right and wrong, viewed as acting as a guide to one’s behaviour
