Talk about corporations and diversity. Why is it important for corporations to embrace diversity?
Well, any corporation has imperative growth, innovation and so for us, we have over 50 women here from Pfizer, all of whom are in different parts of business, different functions in the organization, helping us drive the business forward. So, diversity is important because it’s about how are we creating environments where a lot of different people can come in and help us be successful. I’m very excited to lead that work and be able to participate and partner with Black Enterprise Women of Power because it helps us again continue to engage our talent and help them see how they can continue to be their very best selves.
What advice would you give young people in corporate America?
You know the advice here is always phenomenal from the stage. I had a chance to hear a number of different people talk about it, but essentially you’re going to be your very best when you are working in a company that has values that align with yours so that you can be your [best].
