Kicking Doors Open With Michele Fite
Laurette is joined by guest Michele Fite, Chief Commercial Officer at Motif FoodWorks, to discuss kicking doors open as a woman in the food and beverage industry.
Michele has kicked a lot of doors open in her career, starting out as a marketer before getting recruited by Nestlé where her career in F&B took off. Currently, Michele leads a team as CCO at Motif FoodWorks, a food technology company that's working to change the taste, texture, and nutrition of plant-based foods.
Over the course of her career, Michele has had a number of strong female role models who have provided her guidance and advice, from what to wear to how to balance her career with her role as mother.
After the show, Laurette is joined by Anne Marie Butler, Global Director of Innovation and Commercial Development at Edlong, to discuss her own challenges and wins in kicking doors open as a woman in F&B.
