How Maria is building a better working world
“I am building a better working world - when I am helping companies improve their governance processes and the quality and transparency of their reporting; when I am developing people who work with me by coaching, mentoring and challenging them with the right opportunities, and finally when I am safeguarding my work life balance so that I can be a good mother to my children.”
