View LinkedIn ProfileExecutive Overview
Companies perform at their best when strategy, leadership, talent and culture work together.Throughout my career, I've learned that sustainable performance doesn't come from a single initiative or leader. It comes from building the capabilities, teams and operating environments that allow people to do their best work, solve meaningful problems and create value for customers. Today, as Executive Vice President and Chief Human Resources Officer, I partner with leaders and colleagues around the world to build the talent, leadership and capabilities needed to simplify how work gets done, strengthen execution and help our teams turn strategy into results. The best people strategies aren't separate from the business. They help shape its future.
