BARBARA AS A LEADER

Success is about loving what I do and impacting others positively. With a focus on empowering women and fostering talent, my career reflects a commitment to enhancing workplace culture and promoting self-confidence among employees.

Leadership is not being a general.

Great Leaders inspire by the example.

The future of leadership is connection with the rest of the company and teams.

When I think of a leader, I think of someone not afraid to get the hand dirty and do the job with the team.
