Ep 17: EPIC Contribution with Carolina de la Paz
In this podcast conversation between Jacqueline Frost and Carolina de La Paz, the focus is on Carolina's initiative called "Women Enhancing Logistics" at Lenovo, aimed at promoting diversity and women's leadership in the logistics industry. Jacqueline was inspired by Carolina's story and reached out to her after listening to a discussion on ambition gaps. Carolina explains that her initiative aims to leverage her position as a senior logistics manager to address the lack of female representation in her field. She emphasizes the importance of creating a supportive network and providing role models for future generations.
Carolina shares that the initiative has been successful, reaching over 2500 individuals globally and garnering support from senior male leaders. They discuss the importance of storytelling and addressing unconscious bias in the industry. The sessions cover topics like leadership and personal growth, focusing on macro issues applicable to everyone while promoting inclusivity. Despite challenges, including the shift to virtual sessions due to COVID-19, Carolina remains motivated by positive feedback and the impact of her work. She shares her mantra of taking decisive steps and maintaining persistence, emphasizing progress over perfection. The conversation highlights the importance of collaboration, storytelling, and fostering a supportive environment for women in traditionally male-dominated industries.
