Listen "Taj Alavi, Global Head of Brand of Uber- What it Means to Build, Not Break"
Episode Synopsis
To kick off my new year, I took a little trip south of San Francisco to visit with Taj Alavi, Global Head of Brand at Uber and former Head of Brand for Instagram and Intuit. What was supposed to be an hour breakfast turned into a three-hour fascinating journey with Taj. We talked about everything from how she got to lead Global Brand for one of the biggest companies in the world to how she juggled her full family life to her tips for balancing being direct and being nice. We also touched on the impact of her Iranian culture in how she approached her role as a business leader, and what she had to change to finally “own her informed voice” unapologetically. Tune in to hear Taj’s incredible journey and how her life motto of “build, not break” reminds us all that we are part of a bigger story. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
