I loved this interview with Roz Brewer! She is a way-shower in human skills. Walgreens is lucky to have her!

Such a great story. Thanks for highlighting her. I remember how amazed I was when I read (some years ago) she was in an executive position at Walmart. She’s so inspiring.

She is phenomenal in my book. Talking from a Black female of a certain age. Salute🙏🏾

I loved this interview. As an Asian American female executive, I too have gotten those token comments. Ironically, to make it to the C-Suite, we had to work hard and advocate for ourselves to get noticed. Results shut up the naysayers.

Can you put her name Roz Brewer in the title of this video?

[haute]

I love that she went to an HBCU. I think she is a testament to how important these institutions still are when it comes to positioning members of the Black community to build successful careers and land leadership positions. I hope they continue to receive the financial support/resources they deserve.

Roz Brewer is EXACTLY the kind of person we need to put labor back into its place as the most important aspect of business.

[knjmoorhouse]

Wonderful role model for people of all races, and women and girls of all ages. Thank you for reporting this story.

“Wife, mother of two.” I feel like just for being a woman, instead of opening with “CEO” dammit!

[CultivatedWorkforce]

This interview gives me chills. Great example of leadership.
