Sharon Orlopp had risen to the pinnacle of her corporate career and, by the time she retired, she was Global Chief Diversity Officer at Walmart, responsible for a workforce of 2.2 million people. Upon leaving the company, however, Sharon found herself pulled in another direction, one in which she helps tell powerful stories of overcoming struggle, particularly stories that come from immigrant or minority populations. In her first book Sharon shares the true story of Thuhang Tran, from her beginnings in Vietnam, struggles with polio, losing her family, then finding them again, and much more. We hope you enjoyed this podcast. Find out more about Sharon and get links to her book and social media pages at elinbarton.com/podcast. Also please subscribe to our podcast.
