MONICA ARNAUDO CHIEF MERCHANDISING OFFICER Ulta Beauty

CEW
ACHIEVER AWARD HONOREE
WAS THERE A TURNING POINT IN YOUR CAREER WHERE YOU HAD TO MAKE A DIFFICULT DECISION, AND WHAT WAS IT? MA: Joining Ulta Beauty was the best career decision I ever made, and while it was a tremendous turning point professionally, it also prompted three major life changes for me: moving from California to Illinois, expanding my prestige background to include a more mass focus, and returning to the retailer side of the beauty industry. WHAT IS SOMETHING THAT’S CRUCIAL TO SUCCEEDING IN YOUR ROLE THAT NO ONE TELLS YOU ABOUT? MA: The freedom found in letting things go. We can sometimes spend far too much energy on things that are less critical to the big picture. WHAT KEEPS YOU UP AT NIGHT? MA: Depends on the night. Some things on my mind, fairly regularly, include my kids’ future, the demands of our business, and the care we take to grow with and for our teams and brand partners.
WHAT IS A RECENT BOOK YOU’VE READ THAT YOU HIGHLY RECOMMEND? MA: Caste by Isabel Wilkerson is an incredibly painful, insightful read about the unspoken caste system in America. This is a must read to better understand the injustices that BIPOC people have and continue to endure in our country. WHAT ARE YOU CURRENTLY STREAMING? MA: Actually, I’m currently not streaming anything. Rather, I’m focusing on reading more and listening to podcasts about all kinds of things like business, beauty, diversity, human potential, and global topics. IF YOU WERE TO WRITE THE NOTE FOUND IN A FORTUNE COOKIE, WHAT WOULD IT SAY? MA: Listen for what is not being said. Look for what is not there. Sense what is beyond.
WHAT DO YOU DO TO RECHARGE AND INSPIRE YOURSELF? MA: Get outside. I love to take vigorous hikes along the bluffs of the Pacific Ocean with my pups in tow, an upbeat playlist to keep me moving, or sometimes I’ll take in the sounds of nature.
WHAT TRUTHS DID YOU RELY UPON PRIOR TO COVID-19 THAT YOU NOW QUESTION? MA: Our brands and results have shown us that physical testers are not the crux to satisfying engagement and selling products. Innovation comes in many forms and COVID-19 has accelerated areas we’ve been playing with in exciting new ways.

ACHIEVER AWARD HONOREE
WAS THERE A TURNING POINT IN YOUR CAREER WHERE YOU HAD TO MAKE A DIFFICULT DECISION, AND WHAT WAS IT? GB: At a certain point in my career, while working at corporate beauty companies, I became known for ideating and executing never-before-done products. Many brands started expressing interest in me. I knew then that it was time for me to leave my corporate position and seize the opportunity to start my own consulting company. I was fortunate enough to be able to create two successful consulting companies in my career. These were during the onset of both of my parents’ terminal illnesses, which allowed me to spend time with them and organize their care. From this, I discovered new personal strength while creating new avenues for my professional growth. WHAT IS SOMETHING THAT’S CRUCIAL TO SUCCEEDING IN YOUR ROLE THAT NO ONE TELLS YOU ABOUT? GB: When I first started in the industry, great product developers were known for their creativity, and iconoclastic, out-of-the-box thinking. I entered this discipline armed with my creativity, believing this would be the key attribute to any success I would find. As I grew, I realized how complex, logistical, and technical getting a product to market is and how many people and companies are involved. Today, with the big focus on speed to market, development is just as much about process as creativity is.
WHAT KEEPS YOU UP AT NIGHT? GB: The world, family, health, friends, and ontime launches . . . in that order. WHAT DO YOU DO TO RECHARGE AND INSPIRE YOURSELF? GB: Travel is a key source of inspiration in my life. My husband and I have visited over 70 countries. Our destinations aren’t the usual. For us, the more challenging the trip is, the better. I once read that St. Augustin wrote, ‘The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page.’ I wholeheartedly subscribe to this thinking. WHAT IS A RECENT BOOK YOU’VE READ THAT YOU HIGHLY RECOMMEND? GB: Code Breaker. It’s a thought-provoking book about the history of the study of DNA and the Nobel prize-winning woman who discovered the next biotechnology revolution. WHAT ARE YOU CURRENTLY STREAMING? GB: Amend. It highlights the hard-fought journey for equal rights in America. It’s incredibly moving and educational. IF YOU WERE TO WRITE THE NOTE FOUND IN A FORTUNE COOKIE, WHAT WOULD IT SAY? GB: Keep smiling. WHAT TRUTHS DID YOU RELY UPON PRIOR TO COVID-19 THAT YOU NOW QUESTION? GB: While it’s true that you can get a lot accomplished working virtually, it’s become obvious that in a discipline like product development, which is very tactile and sensorial, there really is no replacement for being there.

ACHIEVER AWARD HONOREE
WHAT IS SOMETHING THAT’S CRUCIAL TO SUCCEEDING IN YOUR ROLE THAT NO ONE TELLS YOU ABOUT? LC: The importance of trusting your gut and experience to make robust decisions. There’s rarely a situation where the available information makes for easy answers. I’ll always assess the data but learning to lean on my instincts helps me make faster, more informed decisions. WHAT KEEPS YOU UP AT NIGHT? LC: Making the world a place of positive possibility for my daughters. My girls, 15 and 19, are beautiful, smart, motivated young women of color. I want them to feel there’s nothing they can’t achieve, and that they deserve a seat at whatever table they choose— including sitting at the head of that table, if that’s their goal. How do I ensure I’m raising strong women in a world that can sometimes feel it’s operating against them? How do I instill confidence, a strong work ethic, and the perseverance needed so they can achieve their versions of success? I want to ensure I’ve fully prepared them for life. WHAT DO YOU DO TO RECHARGE AND INSPIRE YOURSELF? LC: I’m an off-the-charts introvert, so regular recovery time is essential in helping me operate at my peak. Over the years, I’ve learned that ‘me time’ is a necessity, not a selfish act. For me, that can be a long walk, a bike ride, or a great read. Any time I can just relax and be in the moment.
WHAT IS THE MOST RECENT BOOK YOU’VE READ THAT YOU HIGHLY RECOMMEND? LC: I recently re-read Alfred Lansing’s Endurance: Shackleton’s Incredible Voyage. It’s a thriller of sorts that also shares insightful examples of strong leadership. I actually have a sticker on my laptop that says, “What Would Shackleton Do?” WHAT ARE YOU CURRENTLY STREAMING? LC: The Handmaid’s Tale and Bridgerton. Better late than never. IF YOU WERE TO WRITE THE NOTE FOUND IN A FORTUNE COOKIE, WHAT WOULD IT SAY? LC: If the door doesn’t open, it wasn’t your door. Go find your door. WHAT TRUTHS DID YOU RELY UPON PRIOR TO COVID-19 THAT YOU NOW QUESTION? LC: The past year inspired people to take stock of what beauty is all about. Consumers now want beauty to be rooted more in how it makes them feel rather than how it makes them look. I love this reframe. It creates wonderful challenges to design products and experiences that embrace self-care, positive affirmation, and more inclusivity.

ACHIEVER AWARD HONOREE
WAS THERE A TURNING POINT IN YOUR CAREER WHERE YOU HAD TO MAKE A DIFFICULT DECISION, AND WHAT WAS IT? CS: Very early in my career I made the decision to leave Kraft Foods. It was a tough decision to make because I was brought into the organization by my mentor, the trailblazing Ann Fudge, and felt I had so much more to do there. But at the time, I had to prioritize the needs of my family over my career. That said, I may not have ever entered the beauty industry had I not made that early career decision. WHAT’S SOMETHING THAT IS CRUCIAL TO SUCCEEDING IN YOUR ROLE THAT NO ONE TELLS YOU ABOUT? CS: Protecting your energy. When you’re passionate about leading such a dynamic business, with a highly engaged consumer and community base, you can find yourself depleted because you want to make an impact. As the expression goes, ‘You can’t pour from an empty cup.’ So it’s important to be intentional with your time and effort. WHAT KEEPS YOU UP AT NIGHT? CS: The weight of the responsibility of leading this collection of brands, which the Dennis family poured their heart and soul into over decades. My team and I now must be fearless stewards of this business. We lead in service of the Black community through our higher order purpose to close the racial wealth gap by fueling equity in the form of supporting Black entrepreneurship.
WHAT DO YOU DO TO RECHARGE AND INSPIRE YOURSELF? CS: Outdoor distance cycling, travel, experiencing live music and visiting museums, no matter the state or country I’m in.
WHAT’S THE MOST RECENT BOOK YOU’VE READ THAT YOU HIGHLY RECOMMEND? CS: Seven Days in June by Tia Williams. So wickedly clever, sharp and funny. WHAT ARE YOU CURRENTLY STREAMING? CS: A Black Lady Sketch Show and Ziwe. So, so good! IF YOU WERE TO WRITE THE NOTE FOUND IN A FORTUNE COOKIE, WHAT WOULD IT SAY? CS: Something my mother always says to me, ‘Dream.’ WHAT TRUTHS DID YOU RELY UPON PRIOR TO COVID-19 THAT YOU NOW QUESTION? CS: That our consumers only expect great products from us. They are far more complex and demanding than that. I truly believe they expect us to help them change the world.

ACHIEVER AWARD HONOREE
WAS THERE A TURNING POINT IN YOUR CAREER WHERE YOU HAD TO MAKE A DIFFICULT DECISION, AND WHAT WAS IT? LS: The turning point for me was having my son James four years ago. That decision was easy—it was learning to prioritize and to be as productive as possible that was hard at first. But over time, I have become even more efficient, giving my all to whatever the focus is at that moment in time. I am a true believer that working mothers are skilled at managing multiple priorities by nature and this enhances productivity and results. WHAT IS SOMETHING THAT’S CRUCIAL TO SUCCEEDING IN YOUR ROLE THAT NO ONE TELLS YOU ABOUT? LS: Relationships are everything. When you trust the people you work with, you can do amazing things. When trust is not there, that’s when things fall apart. I spend a lot of time getting to know my team, my colleagues across the business and my retail partners and I am very proud of and thankful for the special relationships I have developed over the years. WHAT KEEPS YOU UP AT NIGHT? LS: Not much anymore. I now focus on things I am grateful for and really take the time to rest and recharge so I can hit the next day and the day after that at 100 miles per hour.
has brought me so much inspiration. From observing different cultures to exploring new environments, getting out of your comfort zone is always a good idea to stay sharp. WHAT IS A RECENT BOOK YOU’VE READ THAT YOU HIGHLY RECOMMEND? LS: What Happened to You? by Oprah Winfrey and Bruce D. Perry. It is centered around the importance of knowing your inner self and leveraging that knowledge to encourage resilience, and how to live your best life. I am a big believer in knowing yourself intimately and arming yourself with the tools that make you happiest. WHAT ARE YOU CURRENTLY STREAMING? LS: Anything my four-year-old son, James, is interested in. We watch shows about building tree houses, whale migration, and the solar system. It couldn’t be less glamorous, and I love it. IF YOU WERE TO WRITE THE NOTE FOUND IN A FORTUNE COOKIE, WHAT WOULD IT SAY? LS: You are alive. Be grateful. Be happy. WHAT TRUTHS DID YOU RELY UPON PRIOR TO COVID-19 THAT YOU NOW QUESTION? LS: Meeting in person was the only way. We learned that we can in fact get a lot accomplished virtually: meetings, sales meetings, market appointments—you name it. While we still need human interaction for many conversations, I do believe a hybrid work environment will allow many to be more productive while not missing out on the important parts of life, such as taking your child to school or being home for dinner.
WHAT DO YOU DO TO RECHARGE AND INSPIRE YOURSELF? LS: I work out daily which really keeps my mind clear and open. I have my best ideas in the early morning before the emails start and my family wakes. I also love to travel. While it has been hard this past year, travel still

HOLLY THAGGARD FOUNDER & CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER Supergoop!

CEW
ACHIEVER AWARD HONOREE
WAS THERE A TURNING POINT IN YOUR CAREER WHEN YOU HAD TO MAKE A DIFFICULT DECISION, AND WHAT WAS IT? HT: When I first launched our SPF in Sephora 10 years ago, they offered me prime real estate, just for summer. I knew I had to push back if I wanted people to wear sunscreen daily, so I did and ended up with only six inches of space, but for the entire year. Today, when I see walls filled with Supergoop! year-round, I realize what a pivotal point that was. It helped us change the SPF narrative.
it went away. He says not to settle for creating something mediocre when you can create something outstanding—and of real lasting value instead. It inspires me in doing what I do at Supergoop! daily. WHAT ARE YOU CURRENTLY STREAMING? HT: The Undoing with Nicole Kidman. She’s also a big SPF advocate, so I especially love watching anything she’s in. IF YOU WERE TO WRITE THE NOTE FOUND IN A FORTUNE COOKIE, WHAT WOULD IT SAY? HT: You don’t need a classroom in order to be a teacher.
WHAT’S SOMETHING THAT IS CRUCIAL TO SUCCEEDING IN YOUR ROLE THAT NO ONE TELLS YOU ABOUT? HT: Passion. Entrepreneurship is difficult and requires endless amounts of focus, grit and determination, so the passion gets you through. Be so passionate about your path that you literally can’t sleep at night. WHAT KEEPS YOU UP AT NIGHT? HT: I always say that I dream about SPF, and it’s true. At night, I find myself thinking through new products and ways to get everyone to wear sunscreen. WHAT DO YOU DO TO RECHARGE AND INSPIRE YOURSELF? HT: My daily workouts—sometimes I’ll even have a major a-ha during my Pilates session. WHAT IS A RECENT BOOK YOU’VE READ THAT YOU HIGHLY RECOMMEND? HT: I always find myself going back to Built to Last by Jim Collins. It talks about the magic that makes a ‘forever brand’ and building something that the world would really miss if
WHAT TRUTHS DID YOU RELY UPON PRIOR TO COVID-19 THAT YOU NOW QUESTION? HT: While I’ll always value in person face time, it’s been nice to see how far-reaching technology is. (We launched Sephora Canada, U.K. and China all remotely during the pandemic.) So many panels and virtual opportunities also came my way which allowed me to put a megaphone to our message during an otherwise isolating time. CEW WOMEN’S LEADERSHIP AWARDS

CEW
ACHIEVER AWARD HONOREE
WAS THERE A TURNING POINT IN YOUR CAREER WHERE YOU HAD TO MAKE A DIFFICULT DECISION, AND WHAT WAS IT? JW: I was at the top of my game at 32 years old. I leveraged a seven-year career as a Forex and Crude Oil Trader to be PepsiCo’s Counter-Trade lead and was appointed to the Executive Board for PepsiCo in Asia-Pacific and nominated to The Wall Street Journal’s “Top 50 Women to Watch” by the late Roger Enrico, then CEO of PepsiCo. For personal reasons, I made the most pivotal and difficult decision of my career—to switch careers and join Dial Corp., starting from the ground up in CPG, as a brand manager.
paraphrase quote, ‘Don’t be caught on Mt. Stupid by yourself.’
WHAT IS SOMETHING THAT’S CRUCIAL TO SUCCEEDING IN YOUR ROLE THAT NO ONE TELLS YOU ABOUT? JW: I gravitate to careers, projects and tasks that frighten me and stretch me beyond what I think I am capable of. WHAT KEEPS YOU UP AT NIGHT? JW: That I’ll miss something big right in front of me. For instance, how many times have women cut their panty hose so they won’t have panty lines, and yet it was Sara Blakely who turned Spanx into a unicorn. WHAT DO YOU DO TO RECHARGE AND INSPIRE YOURSELF? JW: Dancing to my playlist on my terrace and not caring who may be watching. WHAT IS A RECENT BOOK YOU’VE READ THAT YOU HIGHLY RECOMMEND? JW: Adam Grant’s Think Again. I have it as a hard copy, on my e-reader, and as an audio book. This is how much I love the book. And if you want a
WHAT ARE YOU CURRENTLY STREAMING? JW: Beauty Uncovered podcast that Olaplex soft-launched in April. We are 48 downloads shy of being in the top 20 percent. IF YOU WERE TO WRITE THE NOTE FOUND IN A FORTUNE COOKIE, WHAT WOULD IT SAY? JW: Tomorrow will be an even better day. WHAT TRUTHS DID YOU RELY UPON PRIOR TO COVID-19 THAT YOU NOW QUESTION? JW: That the digital age is for the young and tech savvy. Instead, we saw consumers from all ages and socioeconomic backgrounds adopting digital in every facet of their lives. Indeed, necessity is the mother of all invention.

C.E.W. AWARD
L
'Oréal USA's journey towards workplace equity for women has been more than a decade in the making. Like many beauty companies—and other industries for that matter—leadership roles a decade ago had been underrepresented by women. In 2010, with 30 percent of its strategic leadership comprised of women—when women comprised more than 50 percent of the company's U.S. workforce—becoming gender balanced at L’Oréal USA, the L’Oréal Group’s number-one subsidiary, was mission critical. A first step towards addressing this was the creation of the internal platform L'Oréal for Women, comprised of and led by some of the company’s most notable female executives, including past CEW Board Members and Achiever Award Honorees Carol Hamilton, Karen Fondu and Sarah Hibberson. The group immediately identified an absence of women in key roles in various departments, including tech, finance and operations. And in 2014, L'Oréal USA partnered with EDGE, the global standard for workplace gender equality, to do a comprehensive review of its gender policies and practices and ensure that it was tracking and benchmarking its progress. By 2019, the number of women comprising L'Oréal USA’s management committee grew to 45 percent. Enter Stéphane Rinderknech, who was appointed President and CEO of L’Oréal USA in October 2019. Within a year, Stéphane made several moves that took the company to 50 percent of women representing L'Oréal USA's management committee, the highest level of gender equity in the company’s history. More than that, Stéphane focused a lens on not just gender equity, but also on racial, ethnic and multi-generational diversity. The result: a pipeline of future leaders more diverse than previously with Black, White, Asian, and Latinas all being represented. Today, 70 percent of L’Oréal USA’s workforce is comprised of women, with three of the company’s four business divisions and the head of Operations led by women, a first for L'Oréal USA. Pay equity is also top of mind. The company is measuring pay equity with internal tools, and last year L'Oréal USA had its process standardized and certified by EDGE. Just recently, L’Oréal USA
announced that it had met EDGE’s criteria for pay equity at the organizational level and was the first company in the world to be certified by EDGEplus, which audits gender equity through the lens of various other dimensions of diversity. “On a topic as important as pay equity, it’s critical to work with independent experts and auditors to ensure that you have the right processes, policies and practices in place to get the equitable results you desire,” said Stéphane. “We encourage all companies in our industry and beyond to join us by participating in EDGE’s rigorous gender equity evaluation process.” One of the company’s biggest internal celebrations and show of support of gender equity is its annual Equity Day event, which features prominent internal and external speakers discussing equity in the marketplace. The event carried on in 2020, albeit virtually, bringing together L’Oréal USA’s entire leadership committee comprised of more than 170 people to talk about the impact of bias, the disproportionate impact COVID has had on women, and how social issues were impacting communities of color. Stéphane has been mindful of the social climate, its impact on employees and L’Oréal USA’s effect on the communities they serve. In his first year as CEO, L'Oréal USA launched an Inclusive Beauty Program to provide financial support to diverse communities within the beauty industry. And, in his second year at the company, he continues to meet with the company’s employee-driven D&I Think Tanks, which represent women executives, women of color, LGBTQ+, veterans, introverts, employees with disabilities, and parents among others. “We are making significant progress on our mission of gender equality and gender balance at all levels of the company,” continued Stéphane. “This progress contributes to our broader commitment to create an environment where every individual at L’Oréal USA feels that they belong and are empowered to bring their full selves to work to help create the beauty the moves the world.”

CEW is honored to present this year’s Lifetime Achievement Award to Madonna Badger. WAS THERE A TURNING POINT IN YOUR CAREER WHERE YOU HAD TO MAKE A DIFFICULT DECISION, AND WHAT WAS IT? MB: The turning point came after my family died in a fire in 2011. I had to decide if I wanted to come back to work again. And I decided to try. Simply try. My work has given me purpose to live. WHAT’S SOMETHING THAT IS CRUCIAL TO SUCCEEDING IN YOUR ROLE THAT NO ONE TELLS YOU ABOUT? MB: How much love plays a part in everything at work. How much I love the people I work with, love my clients, love the many people I have gotten to know over the years. And that loving what I do is not only right, it is crucial for my success and the success of everyone around me.
WHAT KEEPS YOU UP AT NIGHT? MB: Too much coffee.
LOVING WHAT I DO IS NOT ONLY RIGHT, IT IS CRUCIAL FOR MY SUCCESS AND THE SUCCESS OF EVERYONE AROUND ME.

WHAT HAS HELPED P&G BEAUTY’S BRANDS SUCCEED IN THEIR INCLUSIVITY EFFORTS LC: After watching some of our brands struggle to reach diverse consumers, I realized they needed simple guidance to help them make inclusivity a more foundational part of their work. I developed the ‘4R Framework’ with each R representing an inclusivity facet brands must deliver on in order to be authentic AND meaningful: Reach, Representation, Relevance & Resonance. HOW HAS THE 4R FRAMEWORK COME TO LIFE FOR P&G BEAUTY BRANDS?
DIVERSITY BEYOND NUMBERS
A CONVERSATION WITH LELA COFFEY ON BEAUTY’S ROLE IN CREATING A MORE INCLUSIVE FUTURE
Lela Coffey, Vice President, P&G Beauty’s North America Hair Care, is a catalyst for My Black is Beautiful, a community-first brand platform that celebrates & ignites meaningful dialogue around the topic of bias and the ever-evolving subject of beauty, as well as its influence on culture. WHAT DOES DIVERSITY BEYOND NUMBERS MEAN? LC: Diversity Beyond Numbers is P&G Beauty’s commitment to fully make inclusivity part of everything we do. Why? We’re seeing consumers increasingly hold brands accountable for being inclusive, with questions that go beyond employee diversity statistics to touch on brand’s core values, commitment & intentionality.
LC: One example comes from Olay, which hadn’t focused their Reach to connect with Black women. This was something they wanted to change. To do this, Olay ensured Black women could see themselves more comprehensively in their creative content. To address Relevance, Olay pivoted product messaging to celebrate benefits like Regenerist Ultra Rich’s hydration. Olay also amplified Resonance through a multi-year, multi-million dollar commitment to triple the number of Black women in STEM by 2030. WHAT ADVICE DO YOU HAVE FOR BRANDS WORKING TO STRENGTHEN THEIR E&I APPROACHES? LC: Hands down, start by understanding the consumer: discover who they are, what influences their decisions, and what cultural touchpoints drive their beliefs. The team’s diversity – both internal and external – is also critically important. Seek out diverse talent to sit at the table with you, including agency partners and advisors. WHY IS THIS SUCH AN IMPORTANT MISSION FOR YOU? LC: Growing up as one of nine children on a farm in Iowa and raised by adoptive parents who were white, I experienced firsthand how identity & ideas of beauty are shaped by what people see around themselves, the media they consume, and what happens when these views lack diversity. This inspired me to acknowledge, empower, and celebrate all that is beautiful about inclusivity, especially by helping brands celebrate the unique beauty every person possesses.
WHY CAN IT BE HARD FOR BRANDS TO AUTHENTICALLY CONNECT WITH DIVERSE CONSUMERS? LC: For some brands, inclusivity efforts can feel like an add-on to current approaches. When that happens, it’s hard to be authentic. And the consumer can tell. It takes discipline to seek out insights that hyper-resonate with diverse consumers, but we’ve learned that these same insights can resonate with all consumers in some way.

EMPOWERING FEMALE LEADERS IN TODAY’S JOB MARKET ADVICE FROM LISA MARIE RINGUS ON MANAGING DURING TIMES OF UNCERTAINTY AND CREATING A CULTURE OF INCLUSIVITY Lisa Marie Ringus, EVP Client Strategy and Growth, 24 Seven 24 Seven’s employee attitude & behavior research has consistently shown that transparent, authentic workplaces that welcome open communication (without risk of reprisal) and are a safe space to bring one’s whole self have the happiest, most loyal, and engaged teams. As an organization, 24 Seven is passionate about creating an inclusive workplace that promotes and values diversity. Because we are female-founded recruitment agency, 24 Seven is keenly aware of how maintaining a diverse team is both good for our bottom-line and the right thing to do in an increasingly global, multi-ethnic business environment. According to our recent study, 40% OF EMPLOYEES ARE PLANNING TO LOOK FOR A NEW JOB IN THE NEXT YEAR WITH AN ORGANIZATION THAT HAS A STRONGER DEI REPUTATION. A hallmark of 24 Seven’s company culture is the advocacy of the entrepreneurial spirit. Employees are encouraged and supported to think and act like ‘intrapreneurs’ champions of their business within 24 Seven’s business. 24 Seven has gained a reputation as an incubator of top female talent. With that in mind, 24 Seven is proud to partner with Step Up: a leading organization that “propels girls from under-resourced communities to fulfill their potential by empowering them to become confident, college-bound, career-focused and ready to join the next generation of professional women.” We apply this same spirit to the candidates and organizations we support through our recruitment efforts. In 2021 to-date, 24 Seven has helped 150+ BRANDS AND COMPANIES IN BEAUTY HIRE TALENT AND WE’VE PUT NEARLY 1,000 CANDIDATES TO WORK IN BEAUTY JOBS THEY LOVE. To dive deeper into leadership and what makes a successful leader, we sat down with Lisa Marie Ringus, EVP, Global Client Strategy and Growth, to get her perspective: A manager may not be able to impact company culture change, but they have enormous influence over their
team culture. The first step is establishing trust. In times of uncertainty, trust between employees and managers is essential. Trust is a two-way street. Managers must be able to trust that their teams are doing the right thing at all times (even when not physically supervised), and employees must trust that managers are supportive advocates. Our most recent workplace research uncovered that employees are more keenly aware than ever about what they need from an employer when it comes to their work/ life balance, and their physical, emotional, and financial wellness. Have weekly check ins with each team member individually to assess stress level, work/life balance, and engagement. Be prepared to offer solutions or at a minimum offer to get back to them with how you can help them manage the pressure. Time poverty is a real phenomenon — most people are overbooked & overwhelmed. Returning control to employees over their time will not go unnoticed. 65% OF EMPLOYEES IN OUR LATEST SURVEY SAY THAT THEIR COMPANY HAS NOT ENCOURAGED THEM TO TAKE THE TIME NEEDED TO REST, RECOVER, AND RECHARGE AS NEEDED. This is an opportunity as a manager and leader to urge employees to take the time off they’ve earned. Managers need to look for opportunities big and small to create a sticky team culture - one that employees reflect on fondly and are hesitant to leave. Finding creative ways to reward consistent effort and acknowledging the pressure employees are under goes a long way in retaining team members.

#EMBRACEYOURSKIN: SAVANNAH SACHS AND DR. ROSHINI RAJ ON BEAUTY FROM THE INSIDE OUT A CONVERSATION WITH TULA’S CEO, SAVANNAH SACHS AND FOUNDER, DR. ROSHINI RAJ IN AN UNPRECEDENTED YEAR, YOU HAVE BEEN THE DRIVING FORCE BEHIND TULA’S SUCCESS AND EXPANSION. WHAT’S BEEN YOUR SECRET? SAVANNAH SACHS: As a clean, clinically effective and doctor founded skincare brand we’ve been fortunate to be positioned at the intersection of beauty and wellness. TULA is also a digitally native and social fi rst brand with the majority of revenue from DTC. At the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, we began seeing the “skincare effect,” where consumers were prioritizing their skin and skincare routine. This surge in demand isn’t going away and it’s been so rewarding to see our brand and business take off in a totally new gear. Our goal is to help the skincare curious customer become skincare obsessed, through digital innovations such as our new and improved “Skin Quiz” which allows customers to discover a personalized routine from the comfort of their home. The early results of our new “Skin Quiz” showed a 29% improvement in revenue per visit and a 23% increase in AOV. Through the “Skin Quiz” service, TULA also collects over half a million data points each month, in order to inform everything from product development to marketing to ensure hyper relevance for the customer. HOW ARE YOU DISTINGUISHING YOURSELF FROM OTHERS BRANDS IN THE INDUSTRY? SS: TULA, means “balance” in Sanskrit, and is a clean, clinically effective skincare and wellness brand. It’s built on the power of probiotic extracts and superfoods that have the unique ability to balance, nourish, and soothe your skin. As a doctor founded brand, we believe in beauty from the inside out with a focus on being healthy and confident, rather than perfect. We want to share our message of skin positivity and confidence and be a catalyst for positive change. We launched our #EmbraceYourSkin initiative to redefi ne industry standards of beauty by raising the bar and rethinking language, social norms, and imagery. It was created following a TULA customer survey that found out of over 10,000 responses, 70% felt beauty ads degrade their self confidence and only 1% felt social media made them feel more confident. With these alarming statistics in mind, TULA read 24,000 customer reviews and double-checked 6,000+ social posts to
ensure that all of TULA’s content inspires confidence. We committed to no skin retouching on brand imagery and have an “Unretouched Beauty” badge to showcase that promise. In addition to a weekly positive text affi rmation experience, we launched our “Ageless” franchise to disrupt the outdated “anti-aging” product category. We changed our language by replacing ‘anti-aging’ with ‘ageless’ and using “beautiful before, beautiful after.” WHERE DO YOU SEE THE FUTURE OF BEAUTY AND SKINCARE GOING? SS: We have always been focused on the evolution of retail and being a pioneer in that space. Based on current retail trends, skincare is a repeat category and I predict people will continue to maintain their skincare routines coming out of the pandemic. We’re also seeing the democratization of beauty, with new retail concepts like shop-in-shops that are redefi ning the way the modern consumer discovers and shops for prestige beauty. As a digitally native and social fi rst brand we continue to see great momentum in the success of Tula.com, which is our top channel and a core capability, but from Day 1 we knew we wanted to have an omnichannel strategy to make it convenient to discover and shop for TULA. We sell through fantastic retail partners like ULTA and Nordstrom which allows us brick & mortar distribution in over 1,200 doors. TULA will continue to grow that channel as it’s incredibly important for our long-term success. At ULTA specifically, we’re a part of their Conscious Beauty program, and we look forward to continuing to work with them to lead such a groundbreaking initiative and help raise the standard of clean beauty. WHAT WAS YOUR INSPIRATION BEHIND TULA? DR. ROSHINI RAJ: At TULA we believe in beauty from the inside out. As a practicing gastroenterologist, I was infl uenced by the transformation I recognized in my patients after recommending that they incorporate probiotics into their diet. I not only saw a dramatic change in their gut health, but also a significant improvement in the appearance of their skin. At TULA, we’ve used probiotic extracts as a breakthrough innovation in skincare to deliver clean, clinically effective products that work.

Drunk Elephant is committed to using only ingredients that either directly benefit the health of the skin or support the integrity of our formulations. We never take into account whether something is synthetic or natural, instead choosing ingredients based on biocompatibility. That’s why we focus on healthy pH levels, formulations the skin recognizes, small molecular structure that’s easily absorbed, and effective active ingredients that also support and maintain the skin’s acid mantle. But what we leave out of our products is just as important as what we put into them, so you will never find what we call the Suspicious 6™ (essential oils, drying alcohols, silicones, chemical sunscreens, fragrances/dyes, SLS) in our line. We believe that these six ubiquitous ingredients are at the root of almost every skin issue, and when they’re removed entirely from your routine— that is, when you take a Drunk Break™—skin can reset and return to its healthiest, most balanced state. drunkelephant.com
