Hedy Ho, Microsoft Asia’s Regional Go-to-Market Director
Hedy received her MBA from the University of Hull in the UK and her Doctorate Degree in Business Administration from Macquarie University in Australia. She joined Microsoft in 2003, bringing with her years of solid marketing experiences in the technology industry in Asia Pacific and North America. Previous as the Chief of Marketing and Operations at Microsoft Taiwan in 2020, Hedy was responsible for executing its marketing strategy, operational excellence and business planning. She’s in charge of integrating financial and corporate resources and leads cross-disciplinary strategic initiative teams to deliver success. Currently as Microsoft Asia’s Regional Go-to-Market Director, Hedy continues to work with her teams around Asia to create positive impact across industries and connect partners to the global market through Microsoft’s partner ecosystem.
During her placements around the world, Hedy relied on her strong business acumen and extensive trans-continental, trans-cultural professional experiences, to navigate new markets. Inspired by the famous Albert Einstein quote “I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious”. Her mantra in life is to inspire others, and hopes to create more positivity in the world.”
本集重點
和 Hedy 的緣分從她還派駐在台灣就開始,身為產業龍頭的高層主管,Hedy 一直支持年輕世代投身科技業,也時常透過 coaching & mentorship 來輔導更多女性進入產業發光,分享她的經驗和成長。
好的領導力能成功帶領企業轉型,順利度過組織文化變革 — 這點,在微軟走過二十個年頭、擔任近八個不同職務並領導多個團隊和組織的 Hedy 很「有感」。她也分享,客戶至上 (customer obsession)、多元和包容 (D&I) 、成長心態 (growth mindset) 這三個理念,是她在微軟觀察到的轉型關鍵。
但她自己最身體力行的一點,應該要屬「成長型思維」吧!從她工作繁忙之餘還願意花八年的時間攻讀博士學位,到她不停歇的腳步,Hedy 笑著說,「可能一直在原地會讓我覺得有點無聊。」讓我們一起來聽聽 Hedy 認爲知識即為力量,而且她同時也從年輕一代的 mentorship 中得到更多能量的秘訣!
