EVA AS A LEADER
Eva believes that true leadership is about serving others and the common good. She emphasizes the importance of empathy, compassion, and continuous reflection. Evaโs leadership philosophy is centered around creating inclusive and diverse environments, where every individual feels valued and respected.
Leadership is not always seen.
Great leaders love people.
The future of leadership is gender diverse.
When I think of a leader, I think of Nelson Mandela and Gloria Steinem.
LOVE AND COMPASSION, SLEEPING AND TAKING BREAKS ARE THE MOST UNDERESTIMATED SKILLS FOR FUTURE LEADERS.

EVA ON EMBRACING DIVERSITY IN LEADERSHIP
Eva has been a strong advocate for diversity for over 25 years. Her commitment to gender equity in mobility and tackling ageism demonstrates her dedication to creating inclusive workplaces. She believes that respecting and valuing elders can significantly enrich our inner wealth, and she continues to work towards a more diverse world of work.
EVA ON NAVIGATING ORGANIZATIONAL CHANGE
Leading with empathy, teamwork, collaboration, and coaching requires addressing the maturity of the organization. Eva emphasizes the importance of finding early adopters and gradually changing the culture. Her experience shows that sometimes organizations are ready for new leadership, while at other times, they need a complete cultural shift. She believes in starting with those who are open to change and building from there.
SETBACKS AND REFLECTIONS ARE ESSENTIAL. IF ALL GOES WELL, THERE IS NOTHING TO LEARN.
