    Quotes:

    “I liked the mix of the creative and analytical skills [at Manwich]. [But] I thought food was too slow moving for me.” — Paul Schiraldi [0:17:51]

    “I finally realized that working in brand was the right mix of creative and analytical skills. I was always somewhere in between the two. And I felt [it] clicked for me that [this] was the right career path. And I've been in packaged goods and consumer products ever since.” — Paul Schiraldi [0:18:15]

    “I give [L’Oreal] credit because whenever I felt like I was getting a little antsy and ready to move, even without [me] saying anything, they were very good at presenting me with another opportunity.” — Paul Schiraldi [0:20:07]

    “I really didn't expect to be considered for the role. But I figured I should throw my hat in the ring, just so that people knew I was interested.” — Paul Schiraldi [0:30:59]

    “I just always thought, ‘I think I can do it, so why shouldn't I try to do it?’” — Paul Schiraldi [0:32:27]

    “Even though you may not have done 100% of the role before, you've been exposed to enough of it to trust your instincts to know [what to do].” — Paul Schiraldi [0:33:51]

    “I'm very much a generalist. So I'm really good at being proficient in a lot of things without being the expert in any one. And I think that lends itself to this role. I [also] think it's important to obviously have good experts below you within the respective functional areas.” — Paul Schiraldi [0:34:35]

    “When things are tough, [being CEO is] the toughest job, because ultimately, everyone is looking for you to turn things around. And I think when things are going well, it can actually be a lot easier than a lot of roles because you get the credit for everything that's working.” — Paul Schiraldi [0:35:43]

    “All you can do is plan for the scenarios that you think are likely and to try and get ahead of it by planning for different possibilities.” — Paul Schiraldi [0:36:18]

    “I typically try and work out probably two, sometimes three (if I'm lucky) times a week, although it should be more. I do hot yoga, which I love — it's just really really great at clearing my mind.” — Paul Schiraldi [0:39:47]

    “I find, for me, the most satisfying thing is when I can do an activity where it takes my mind off of that constant dialogue, and the constant analysis that is going on in my head.” — Paul Schiraldi [0:40:20]

    “I think it's always the balance between tenacity and flexibility. It's having the determination to continue with something, [and having] a vision that you believe in, but also knowing when to be flexible [and] pivot.” — Paul Schiraldi [0:49:01]
