More About Guest, Christine Yeager:
Christine Yeager’s philosophy is to step out of her comfort zone – being uncomfortable can lead to growth potential. As a Texan, Leo, and an extrovert who lives life with a little flair, she believes people should never stop trying to learn new things. Throughout her career, she has created opportunities to make connections that steer towards the most impactful work. She is an inspired leader rooted in embracing the differences each team member brings and discover-ing the value we can create together. Christine has spearheaded teams and empowered them to deliver capabilities. She’s also built processes, tools, and integrations that begin to unravel the web to trusted product information from brand names to nutrition information to dimensions and shelf space of the product.
Throughout her career, Christine has come to recognize the importance of a safe and welcoming work environment where her peers can bring their whole self to where she has worked, Coca-Cola North America, for the last 9 years. Beyond her work, she believes the cocktail is right for social enterprises to be the new successful businesses of the private sector. Luckily, Coca-Cola sees that as well and has many different avenues where it is getting involved in the objectives of social enterprise through its foundation and initiatives like 5by20, becoming water neutral, and a world without waste. Christine has an MBA from Emory University’s Goizueta School of Business and a B.S. from Clemson University.
