  • Shaneen Jackson, Global Lead for Women's ERG at Kraft Heinz

    “From the moment we connected I knew Salima was my top pick supported by my leadership team as a keynote speaker for our Global International Women's Day event. At Kraft Heinz, we are on a mission to increase Women in Leadership roles to 50% by 2025 and increase gender parity to 50% by 2025. With these aspirations and this work being at the forefront of Salima’s everyday life, I knew she would have a powerful story to tell to our employees at Kraft Heinz.

    Her P.I.E. framework is one that we can all resonate with, you don’t have to work hard to advance but rather have an opportunity to be at the table and allow your voice to be heard with supporting allies and sponsors. Thank you Salima for sharing your expertise by educating and inspiring over 600 of our employees on IWD. We are stronger because of you!
