Lisa joined the company as a door-to-door salesperson and over the course of 30 years, worked her way up to becoming President and CEO of the company. Lisa reflects on her journey and shares some key lessons: Most career paths aren't linear Leadership isn't about personal achievements but about making an impact on people's lives Institutional knowledge is important, but being open to blending it with new ideas will drive sustainable growth WHAT I LOVE MOST… Lisa's "mic-drop moment" when on March 8th, 2020 (International Women's Day), a 100% female crew set sail for the first time in history.
