214: Celebrating a Career in Sales and Leadership; Maria Boulden, Advisor, Board Member, Ex DuPont, Ex Gartner
Maria Boulden got a degree in Chemical Engineering because she learned that a Chemical Engineer would be the highest paying engineering job possible. She was a rising star at Drexel University and landed a co-op role at DuPont while still in college. Since most of the sales roles were held by engineers back in the late 1990's / early 2000's it wasn't that hard of a transition when she landed her first sales role. She became a Sigma "Black Belt" within Dupont - which was a big program for quality improvement in the 90's - Maria found a way to balance family and work although it cost her the "fast track" in promoting, but it led her into a career in data and commercial application. Later she went on to Gartner and now is retired, but looks back to share some great lessons.
