Cariloop Co-Founder Transitions to Chief Impact Officer

Steven Theesfeld is the caregiver support company’s first impact officer. Theesfield, who helped found the company in 2012 alongside CEO Michael Walsh and serves as a board member, was previously chief integrity officer.

 

Culture is key at Cariloop, and it encourages a “people-first mentality,” it said. During the pandemic, Theesfield helped lead the conversion of Cariloop into a Public Benefit Corporation with the support of the board and shareholders. 

In his new role, he’ll work “side by side with the entire team to “champion the company’s global impact strategy and lead the company in finding new and innovative ways to support the local, domestic and international communities they operate in.”

Theesfield underscores the importance of the move: “… we were able to engrain interdependence into the legal foundation of our company and further define our purpose.”

The company must consider what ‘success’ looks like from many perspectives—”the caregiver, the Looper, the customer, the investor, our global community, and define how we as a Company will make a positive impact on our society,” he said in a statement earlier this month.
