Business Lessons from Kathy Ireland


Forbes positioned Kathy Ireland as having transitioned from super-model to super-mogul. But she relates that design and business were always her passion, since she was a little girl. Modeling seemed more of a detour, a very successful one at that, but her path had always been business.

In this video, she talks at Google, and shares some hard lessons learned: Each day, she asks, for example, do we break down or do we break through?

Kathy Ireland will share her journey as an entrepreneurial child, whose unexpected detour as a model, delayed rather than opened, the doors of her dreams: motherhood, philanthropy and fashion CEO.

Kathy recently was featured on the cover of Forbes Magazine. In 2011, she received the Phenomenal Women of the Year Award from the YWCA and received the American Heritage Award from the Anti-Defamation League. 
Today, more than 100,000 items carry her label.
