“May the bridges you burn light the way.” This phrase caught my eye because I have been a bridge-burner...between genders, geographies, and generations. As the first woman board member on the Fortune 50 company, Anthem, as well as on the $240B mutual fund complex Lord Abbett, and as first woman Chair of the University of California at Irvine Foundation Board of Trustees, I have helped to light the way for other women; to make more “shelf-space” for women and diverse candidates, not to just take the one seat, and sit still. As the first female CEO of the US operations of Costain, a London-based international construction, mining and engineering company, I dealt with the nuances of business between two countries “divided by a common language.” As the only woman corporate board member on the Sydney, Australia-based Lend Lease Corporation, I was dealing with both gender issues for women in the business, as well as diverse operations in 80 different geographies and cultures around the world. I have always believed that business can, and must, do better. I believe that stakeholder capitalism is the only sustainable business model in today’s world. With Leader’s Quest, The B-Team and the YPO Impact Board, I share this vision: Business can be profitable AND lead the way to positive systemic and structural change. The organizations I work with light the way to social equity, human rights, and the right of our next generations to inherit a healthy planet. I believe in synchronicity, and in the power of saying yes at the door, getting out of your comfort zone on purpose and challenging entrenched bias. I believe in the power of the human spirit to dream the biggest dreams, to solve the biggest problems and to burn the right bridges to the past. And as to our next generations, I want to make common cause for their future. I am fortunate to work with brilliant founders, creators, innovators and leaders who share their visions for a better world in their endeavors, with such companies as Savvy Co-op, Project Wayfinder and Chime. I am energized by their spirit of adventure and hard work, and privileged to live in their world of new insights, to understand their perspectives, and to revel in their achievements. My skill is in leading conversations into positive action and encouraging change for good in the real-world business and social welfare arenas. I am looking forward to joining with other bridge-burners and builders here on LinkedIn: those who are creating new paths to a healthier planet and a more equitable way of living together.
