Annette has a clear mission to inspire budding leaders to look within, harness their strengths, and bet on themselves.

Annette and Kathryn discuss her current company NRStor Inc., her focus on solving a global problem, the importance of equity ownership and sustainability, why we should be investing in immigrants and women, and finding alternative ways to "move up the mountain". Annette pulls back the curtain and talks about the pivotal moments in her corporate career and what she has learned along the way.
