The director of USA distribution for Orthomol expressed her enthusiasm for introducing the brand in the U.S., aligning with her personal goal of working abroad. She highlighted a significant difference in how consumers in Germany and the U.S. learn about supplements, noting that while German pharmacists educate customers face-to-face, American consumers mainly rely on digital content. This shift necessitates clear and accessible online communication of complex scientific information.
Before entering the business sector, she spent over a decade in Germany’s top field hockey league, which profoundly shaped her leadership philosophy. She emphasized the importance of teamwork and understanding individual strengths to foster an environment conducive to success.
For women aspiring to build careers in the dietary supplement industry, she advised being curious, open-minded, and trusting one’s instincts, reflecting that each person is in their role for a reason.
