Everyone loves Bumble Bee tuna. After all, America has enjoyed the great taste of our premium seafood products for more than 100 years. Yum!

The rise in women taking up senior leadership team appointments in business is a key statistic which is continuing to grow. My experience as a woman in business has certainly followed this trend. I have been an instrumental leader in business for over 20 years helping to transform and change companies’ revenues and profits by delivering on their strategic business goals, deadlines and budgets. My approach to leadership is one of respect. Throughout my career I have built high performing teams by empowering others and supporting my team development and growth. If you can champion your teams’ achievements and create an environment that is collaborative and forward-thinking, success will follow. I have always been courageous, a risk taker and big picture thinker. For me, going out of my own comfort zone is what makes the work I do so exciting. Through public speaking on gender parity, I teach women the lessons that I have learnt and encourage them to stand up for themselves and fight for what they think is right when it comes to being a woman in business.
