American Tower is a Fortune 500, S&P 500 and Forbes Global 2000 company that provides the infrastructure for modern digital communications.

As a leader, she strongly supports the notion of creating psychological safety in the workplace and advocates for all employees to feel safe to raise their voices, share ideas and admit mistakes without fear.

However, inclusion must be ingrained in company culture through conscious habits to be effective.
