Finally, she will also grow the company’s investments in talent management and capabilities within the marketing and consumer engagement teams.

“We are focused on delivering the very best, high-quality products that leverage consumer insights from our enhanced data analytics, and I am confident that [Lauder] is the right person to lead this important area of the business,” said Freda. “[Lauder's] unique combination of understanding high-touch consumer experiences, and data analytics and insights, will further strengthen our innovative product offerings and experiences for our consumers globally.”
