 Biographical Sketch for Dr. Gregory G. Bond

Dr. Bond  retired at the end of June 2014 after a 35 year career in environment,  health and safety and sustainability with The Dow Chemical Company.  He  has subsequently formed Manitou View Consulting, LLC which provides  product safety and stewardship expertise and strategic advice to select  clients.

For more than 15 years (1996-2012), Dr. Bond was  Corporate Director of Product Responsibility and led Dow’s global  product safety, compliance and sustainability organization, including  the toxicology and environment fate laboratories.  In this role, he had  administrative responsibility for an organization of 400 full time Dow  professionals and approximately 100 contractor employees, and managed an  annual expense budget of more than $100MM and an annual capital budget  of more than $3.5MM.  He also led Dow’s governance oversight team for  product safety and compliance.  Dr. Bond  frequently presented to Dow’s  Board of Directors and the Executive Management team on a variety of  topics ranging from efforts to comply with the EU REACH legislation, to  TSCA reform to risk and issue management associated with specific  products and operations.  He played an instrumental role in developing  Dow’s visionary 2015 Sustainability goals and was responsible for the  implementation of several of them.

From March, 2006 until  December 1, 2008, Dr. Bond held the additional role of Asia Pacific  EH&S Director and was based in Shanghai, People’s Republic of China.   During this period, he built the local EH&S organization from 5 to  more than 30 employees and led the region to achieve its strongest  historical performance in personal, process and product safety.  

During  the final two years of his Dow career, Dr. Bond was a loaned executive  from Dow to the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor.  In this position,  Greg was a part of the leadership team administering the Dow  Sustainability Fellows program  http://sustainability.umich.edu/education/dow, which aimed to bring  together 300 graduate and post-graduate students from all areas of the  university to find interdisciplinary, actionable and meaningful  solutions to some of the world’s biggest sustainability challenges.

Dr.  Bond joined Dow as an epidemiologist in 1979 and conducted and  published occupational and environmental epidemiology research for the  next twelve years.  In 1991, he moved to the product stewardship area  and was appointed Global Director of Product Stewardship in 1995. 
 

Dr.  Bond has published more than sixty journal articles on epidemiology  research and product stewardship and has made literally hundreds of  presentations to various audiences ranging from local community groups,  to graduate students, professional societies and Boards of Directors.   In 1988, he was elected a Fellow in the American College of  Epidemiology.

Over the years he has served as an advisor to  various government agencies, including the U.S. Environmental Protection  Agency, the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health, the  National Cancer Institute, the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease  Registries, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and others.

For  three years, Dr. Bond chaired the American Chemistry Council’s Health,  Product and Science Policy Team and played a key leadership role in the  development of a number of key industry product stewardship initiatives  (e.g., US EPA High Production Chemical Challenge, and the Global Product  Strategy).  He was also Vice Chairman of the Association of  International Chemical Manufacturers, the leading chemical industry  association in China and worked to elevate product stewardship as a  priority for the local industry.

From 2007 through 2013, Dr.  Bond co-chaired the International Council of Chemical Association’s  Chemicals Policy and Health Leadership Group which aimed to improve the  product safety performance of the global chemical industry and  strengthen science and risk-based chemicals management legislation and  regulation throughout the world (www.icca-chem.org).  He was the  recipient of the 2009 American Chemistry Council’s Distinguished  Leadership Award in recognition for this work.  He has done frequent  print and visual media interviews on behalf of Dow and the global  chemical industry on the topics of chemicals management policy and  performance.

Dr. Bond is also currently a member of the Dean’s  Advisory Board for the School of Public Health at the University of  Michigan where he is also an adjunct professor of environmental health  sciences.

Greg obtained a Ph.D. in Epidemiology after receiving a  Bachelor of Science degree in Microbiology and a Masters degree in  Public Health, all from the University of Michigan.  He is a graduate of  the executive education program at Thunderbird School of Graduate  International Management and has also done coursework at IMD located in  Lausanne, Switzerland.  He was elected a Fellow in the American College  of Epidemiology in 1988.
