Laura and Mollie share two very different but equally inspiring career journeys, Laura from a path through academia and industry into R&D leadership, and Mollie from nutrition science into global marketing and product management. Together, they reflect on the power of resilience, adaptability, and passion as guiding forces in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math’s) careers. 

Their conversation explores the importance of staying true to your scientific roots while embracing new challenges, the role of mentorship and networks, and having the courage to speak up. Laura also believes in the power of clarity, her vision boards keep her laser focused on personal and professional goals, turning visual milestones into anchors for smart decisions, moments of celebration, and a reminder to savor the journey, not just chase the destination.  

At Kerry Group, innovation is not only about advancing health and nutrition, but also about creating an environment where people can pivot, grow, and make their mark. For Laura and Mollie, leadership means nurturing talent, amplifying voices, and shaping the next generation of STEM leaders.
