I Feel Like I'm Part Of History

The Company Was Actually Founded On Creating Earnings Opportunities For Women, Even Before It Went Into Skincare, Lipstick, And Fragrance. The Founding Avon Principle, Before Women Could Vote And When Basically Only Men Were Working, Was To Allow Women To Get Out Of Their Homes And To Create An Entrepreneurship Opportunity For Them.

I Think The Economic Empowerment Of Women That Has Been Growing Over The Past Decade Is At The 'inflection Point' With This Global Recession. Women Are, We Believe, The Solution For Their Families In Their Ability To Go Out And Increase Household Income.

It Is An Honor To Be With Thousands Of Leaders From Around The World Who Are United In Their Mission To Eradicate Violence Against Women. Avon Is Proud To Share Their Commitment To This Goal. We Are Honored To Be A Leading Supporter Of The 2nd World Conference Of Women's Shelters, And Are Grateful For The Work That All Of You Do Day In And Day Out To Ensure That Women Across The World Can Find Ways To Live Their Lives Free Of Violence.

I Became Ceo At The Beginning Of The Hit On Old Economy Stocks. When Something Like That Occurs In Your First Six Months As A Ceo Of A More Traditional Branded Firm, It Makes For A Fast Learning Curve.
