At Walgreens Boots Alliance, I am responsible for the vision, strategy and direction of all global HR and ESG programs, policies and practices.
In alignment with our company vision to be the leading partner in reimagining local healthcare and wellbeing for all, we established a team member (employee) vision at Walgreens Boots Alliance "to care for our team members as whole people."
Our ambition is to create a sense of belonging, joy and wellbeing across our team, inspiring our employees to then convey that same culture to our customers and patients. If our team members are not feeling joy in their work, they cannot provide it to others.
Our focus is on what our team members need to be successful, and we can only determine this through getting out of our offices to regularly listen to our employee base. We are proud that this is not exclusively an HR strategy but one that leaders across our organization have signed up for and partner with the HR function to deliver.
My personal leadership philosophy is to be "unapologetically human" in everything I do. As leaders, we set the tone by role modeling behaviors and ways of working. Part of this is embracing vulnerability and authenticity. If we do not do this, we do not provide our teams with permission to do the same. I am a firm believer in the importance of an inclusive environment that encourages employees to bring their whole, authentic selves to work. When people come to work, they don’t check who they are at the door.
At WBA we are connected in our commitment to our corporate purpose, more joyful lives through better health, but it's understanding each other as unique individuals that creates our strong community.
Knowing who I am makes me stronger, but our understanding of each other makes us stronger.
