Why diversity matters with Karen Pflug

Have you ever wondered how you could take on a role that you knew
not-too-much about and absolutely succeed? Karen Pflug is an
incredible person who shared her experience with doing just
this.

Karen Pflug is the Chief Sustainability Officer at Ingka Group.
Ingka Group is the largest IKEA retailer and represents about 90%
of IKEA retail sales. It is a strategic partner to develop and
innovate the IKEA business and help define common IKEA
strategies. Ingka Group owns and operates IKEA sales channels
under franchise agreements with Inter IKEA Systems B.V. It has
three business areas: IKEA Retail, Ingka Investments and Ingka
Centres.

Karen Pflug was open and honest about not being prepared for, or
even feeling ready to step into the roles she has stepped into
throughout her career. She stepped into these roles anyway and
has made an incredible success of them. Karen is an
inspiration for a lot of people who want to take on certain
roles, but might not feel ready yet. Notice that fear and then do
it anyway.

This is a conversation that I thoroughly enjoyed and I know it is
the first of many.
