MY JOURNEY SO FAR

  • Joined in 2021
  • Senior HR Business Partner
  • Learning, Culture, DEI Senior Manager
  • Director  – Learning, Culture & DEI

A MISSION BEYOND MAKING PROFIT

The mission is inspiring to me because it is not just about profit, but it is about people. Health is the number one priority of people regardless of where you come from, this is the case everywhere in the world. Some countries face challenges managing health issues due to of malnutrition etc. and I am proud to say that Danone, by our mission "bringing health through food to as many as possible", we are contributing to a healthier world.

 

DESIRE TO HAVE OTHER PEOPLE SUCCEED

When you work at Danone, you see people truly wanting others to succeed. People share information and ask questions. You never get the impression that someone is on a personal mission to climb the ladder by crawling over you. It is about contributing to the organization’s success.

DO SOMETHING IMPORTANT FOR YOU

Danone has inspired me to rethink my social involvement within my community. As part of the BIPOC (Black, Indigineous & People Of Color) employee resource group, I started to volunteer with an organization that supports women of color who are single parents.

ALLOWING PEOPLE TO BE THEMSELF

As a person of color, you are sometimes the only one and it is difficult to be vulnerable when you are different from others. We have a mentoring program that allows people to have a safe place to be vulnerable and receive the feedback needed to develop professionally.
