MPW内部网络是一个邀请最有影响力的商界女性及时解答职业与领导力问题的在线社区。本周,我们的问题是:你如何保持对工作的激情?以下是卡夫食品集团执行副总裁兼首席营销官蒂安妮•埃尔斯纳的回答。 During my 20 years at Kraft Foods KRFT 0.95% , I’ve learned the importance of continuously seeking new experiences. This perspective has allowed me to regularly reinvent myself professionally throughout my career and take on numerous roles within the company. From moving across the pond to run Kraft’s coffee business, to overseeing the North American beverages business, and now as Chief Marketing Officer, I’ve learned some valuable lessons along the way: 在卡夫食品公司(Kraft Foods)工作的20年间,我学到了持续寻找新体验的重要性。正是基于这种观点,我在职业发展过程中,不断对自己进行重新塑造,在公司内担任过无数职位。从四处奔波,到运营卡夫的咖啡业务,再到负责北美饮料业务,现在又担任了公司首席营销官(CMO),在此期间,我总结了许多宝贵的经验: Keep an open mind. It’s essential to be open to new opportunities when they come your way. Nearly two years ago, I was managing the P&L for our company’s beverages business, when our CEO offered me the role as Kraft’s first CMO since becoming an independent company. At first, I thought he was crazy. And at the time, I was reluctant to make the switch from managing a business to overseeing a centralized function. But it was what the company wanted and needed of me, and I accepted. I couldn’t be more thrilled with this once-in-a-lifetime chance to change how a company with an enviable portfolio of food and beverages approaches marketing. |
