🥁 I am thrilled to welcome Laura Stearn as a Consultant. 🥁
She will be helping us to further develop and amplify our Inclusion and Diversity offer.
Laura is a highly experienced individual with a diverse professional background. She started her career in the TV industry, working as a production coordinator on various TV documentaries. During her 12-year tenure at the Irish National broadcaster, RTE, Laura gained valuable expertise in selling TV documentaries and Drama programmes to International Broadcasters.
In 2019, Laura made a career transition and ventured into entrepreneurship by opening her own online stationery company called Fold & Seal. However, after running the business for two years, she recognised that her true passion lay in supporting and promoting female-owned businesses. This realisation led her to shift her focus and join an online business membership for women as a Community Manager.
In her role as a Community Manager, Laura was responsible for fostering engagement and creating a supportive environment within the online business community. Additionally, she was part of the Diversity and Inclusion (D&I) team, where she actively contributed to initiatives aimed at promoting diversity, equality, and inclusion among the community's members.
Laura's dedication to championing female-owned businesses prompted her to pursue further education in the field of Diversity, Equality, and Inclusion. Currently, she is studying for a Master of Business in EDI, which she is expected to complete this year. This academic pursuit will further equip her with advanced knowledge and skills to drive meaningful change and create more inclusive environments within the business community and beyond.
A very warm welcome Laura! ☺️
