IRIS AS A LEADER

Success means making an impact, transforming structures and careers. My success stems from leadership, vision, and inspiring change.

Leadership is not demand and control.

Great Leaders empower their teams.

The future of leadership is resilient leadership.

When I think of a leader, I think of walking-the-talk.
