differences manage
How you manage change can make all the difference.
america important development
I am very excited and delighted to be an important part of the development of corporate America.
heart people vote
People vote with their hearts, not their heads.
advice pieces
I've received many good pieces of advice throughout my life.
powerful endorphins very-powerful
Endorphins are a very powerful thing.
hate opportunity people
I hate to see people frustrated or leave a company for an opportunity they could easily have had at their current company if they had only asked.
responsibility keys long
To build and sustain brands people love and trust, one must focus-not only on today but also on tomorrow. It's not easy...but balancing the short and long term is key to delivering sustainable, profitable growth-growth that is good for our shareholders but also good for our consumers, our employees, our business partners, the communities where we live and work, and the planet we inhabit
simple feet firsts
It is a simple fact that you can't steal second base if your foot is firmly planted on first.
believe facts servant-leadership
It's fair to characterise me as competitive and determined, but anyone who works with me will attest to the fact I believe very strongly in the notion of servant leadership.
father son thinking
I think my father was somewhat disappointed in not having had a son, and in that way I was the nearest thing he had.
new-york believe loss
Mondelez International is a proud signatory to the New York Declaration on Forests, an important step to unite governments, NGOs and business to slow and then end forest loss. We can't act alone to halt deforestation or climate change, so we call on everyone to play a role. While it won't be easy, I believe this agenda is achievable if we link it directly to business goals.
clear-direction leader important
The most important role of a leader is to set a clear direction, be transparent about how to get there and to stay the course.
women command-and-control want
Our emerging workforce is not interested in command-and-control leadership. They don't want to do things because I said so; they want to do things because they want to do them.
inspirational jobs cream
Do your job brilliantly and the cream will rise to the top.
