Andrea Mallard is the Chief Marketing Officer at Athleta, an ethical apparel brand recognized for their yoga wear and clothing line designed to inspire women and girls to reach their full potential. Andrea received her bachelor’s degree in International Politics and English Literature from Queens University in 1999 and her master’s degree in Media from the London School of Economics in 2001 - graduating at the very top of her class at both schools. After graduating college, she began working with IDEO, Omada Health, and, later, held a seat on the Board of Advisors for the German company, Unu Motors.

Today, Andrea shares how to incorporate creativity into your business and the power of failure. She explains the critical nature of maintaining a “beginner’s mind” despite your level of success and how to find the advantages lurking within unexpected situations. She also shares her thoughts on personal branding and why she thinks you shouldn’t focus on building your personal brand.

 

“A good idea is doomed to be a good idea forever, but a bad idea has the chance to be great.” - Andrea Mallard

Andrea Mallard’s Top 3 Success Strategies for Fierce Feminine Leaders:

  1. Seek and give feedback and build trust with the people you are working with.
  2. Have a sense of humor.
  3. Always be willing to go the extra mile. Build to think. Don’t stay too long in strategy. Roll up your sleeves to create something just to help you think through it.

 

Fierce Leadership Quotes:

  • “You need to take the time to have a beginner’s mind. You need to start back at question zero, no matter what you’re doing, no matter how much you think you have empathy or intuition.” - Andrea Mallard
  • “Don’t worry about being perfect. Don’t be afraid to ask for help. Don’t be afraid to admit what you don’t know.” - Andrea Mallard
  • “People fail all the time. That suggests they are taking risks; they are working, they are pushing.” - Andrea Mallard
