Jennifer Woollford was global brand director with Mars, Inc. before she moved to Hong Kong from the UK three years ago with her husband Stuart and two children. Rather than continuing her rise at the global food giant in an Asia role, she chose a different path. Today Jennifer is the founder and director of NEON Leaders, a collective of strategic marketing leaders sort of like a brain trust for hire, augmenting and extending the capabilities of marketing teams across Asia.
What made her decide to walk away from a high-flying career to blaze a new trail on the other side of the world? Join me as I talk with Jennifer on her journey from London to Hong Kong, her thoughts on balancing career and family, and what it means to "lean out."
