More quotes by Andrea Jung
It's an unbelievable responsibility to influence decisions, shareholder value and most important to me, people's careers and livelihoods.
Andrea Jung
There's obviously a correlation between an economically empowered woman and the investments she makes. That leads to her social and moral conscience for bettering her community.
Andrea Jung
Talent is the No. 1 priority for a CEO. You think it's about vision and strategy, but you have to get the right people first.

Women are clearly the major consumers in far more than just female categories. It doesn't matter whether it is purchases of cars, cosmetics, or even products for men, female consumption power is the leading consumption power in the world. Any company that overlooks the woman as the decision maker is making a huge mistake.

That was very much ahead of its time back in the 1880s and, not surprisingly, it was met with some resistance. [I]f you fast forward to today and the fact that we're the single largest source of employment for women (broadly speaking, as the reps are independent contractors), we've been an important creator of entrepreneurship for women.

It has given me a global vantage point, being the daughter of immigrants from China, who had nothing when they came here. And now I am leading a company. It speaks to something deep in me, the concept that you don't have to start with anything.

Since I'm a mother and a wife, I have to have passion or the frustration would win out. But I love managing people. The product is second to managing the people. And marketing to consumers is so challenging because it is evolving constantly.
Andrea Jung
My parents kept the best aspects of the Asian culture, and they Americanized the family. My mother was a great example for me. She was a working mother with a good career.

If you feel like it's difficult to change, you will probably have a harder time succeeding.
Andrea Jung
Follow your compass, not your clock.
Andrea Jung
I think the economic empowerment of women that has been growing over the past decade is at the 'inflection point' with this global recession. Women are, we believe, the solution for their families in their ability to go out and increase household income.
Andrea Jung
I can only have dinner with my girlfriends once a month instead of once a week.
Andrea Jung
Women like myself, CEOs, can pave the way for more women to get to the top.
Andrea Jung
The product is second to managing the people.
Andrea Jung
I became CEO at the beginning of the hit on old economy stocks. When something like that occurs in your first six months as a CEO of a more traditional branded firm, it makes for a fast learning curve.
Andrea Jung
President Obama's 100-day plan is pretty impressive. I think it's a Wow 100-plus days. The administration is not operating from fear, it is trying to drive change for the future, and that's a good thing.
Andrea Jung
I think there is a big and significant difference between being a leader and being a manager-leaders lead from the heart. You have to be analytical and flexible. Flexibility is one of the key ingredients to being successful. If you feel like it's difficult to change, you will probably have a harder time succeeding.

Some people just wait for someone to take them under their wings but they should just find someones wings to grab onto.
Andrea Jung
My parents ingrained in me early on that the perfect score is always something to strive for. I want to win and I want to succeed no matter what.
