Discover the fascinating journey of a woman who describes her life as continually being lucky and falling "ass backward into clover". She's funny, she's smart, and she obviously works her ass off.
Michelle Little, a Senior Program Manager of global logistics at Google, discusses her unconventional and extraordinary path to success after success and the various industries she has worked in, including international trade, law, fashion, and supply chain management. Everywhere she has gone she has made impact. She is damn impressive.
Being discouraged from pursuing math-related fields "as a woman", she found her passion in political science and international trade. Michelle shares how she stumbled into different career opportunities, including working in export management and serving as a legislative assistant on Capitol Hill, where she contributed to historic trade legislation.
After contemplating a career in law (a few times), Michelle decided to follow her desire for happiness and joined the fashion industry in California. She gained valuable experience in supply chain management and worked with renowned brands, discovering the intricacies of turning raw materials into profitable products.
Throughout her journey, Michelle emphasizes the importance of timing and luck in one's success, citing Bill Gates as an example. She shares stories about the companies she worked for, their unique approaches, and the pride employees took in their work.
Michelle's journey faced a turning point when a family crisis arose, leading her back to her home sate of Ohio. You'll love how she found herself again and pulled herself out of grief by badgering a local contractor into giving her the manager's phone number of the new Starbucks he was building near her home.
