The Heidrick & Struggles Leadership Podcast

In this podcast, Heidrick & Struggles’ Axel de Schietere speaks with Cécile Cabanis, board member and former executive vice president and chief financial officer of Danone, the multinational food products corporation. Cabanis talks about the path her career has taken, the coincidence and dedication that led her to where she is today. She offers leadership advice to women aspiring to a career in finance and stresses the importance of focusing on one’s strengths rather than weaknesses, as well as to always stay true to oneself. She also discusses the balance needed between short- and long-term goals and Danone’s commitments to ESG, specifically concentrating on localization, health, and overall governance.
