“The best experiences I've had in my career are the ones that I've raised my hand for.”
What do attending nine schools in twelve years, glow-in-the-dark basketballs, and raising your hand have in common? For Leigh Anna Trelenberg, they all speak to perseverance and adaptability- the common threads that run through her life and career. As Mattel's Director of U.S. Media, Leigh Anna shares how growing up all over the country and overseas has helped her develop the flexibility and intuition she now brings to the ever-changing world of media. In this episode of Brand Insider: BTS, she joins Lisa Singer to talk about the power of listening before reacting, why some of her biggest career wins came from simply raising her hand, and how sometimes the best path forward is to "just keep swimming." She also opens up about the unexpected ways motherhood has shaped her media instincts, why her daughter Cameron is her greatest inspiration, and how her best day of the year is when they visit "mommy's toy company"- at least according to Cameron!
