Women in Leadership: How Sappe CEO went from investment banker to running a global consumer brand
Manage episode 414796340 series 2734211
As part of our ongoing ‘Women in Leadership’ series of the ESG Insider podcast, we’re speaking with women CEOs and leaders from across industries and around the world to understand their path to the top.
In today’s episode, we talk with Piyajit Ruckariyapong, CEO of Thailand-based Sappe, a family business producing a range of juice and health drinks sold around the world.
Piyajit describes how her leadership style has changed significantly over a career that started in investment banking. In the CEO role at Sappe, she tells us she leads with a focus on teamwork and empathy, which she says “creates the playground for our company to be able to play together, experiment together.”
She talks about building the company into a global brand and being named one of Forbes Asia’s Power Businesswomen in 2023. And she explains why women hold around 60% of senior management positions at Sappe, a figure that is significantly higher than global averages.
