In this episode, Stephanie shares how L’Oréal is shaping a “people-first leadership culture” across its global organization.

Stephanie also talks about the importance of consistent feedback through quarterly “connect” conversations, the role of data in creating insights (not dashboards), and how HR can sustain impact through empowerment.
