钟彬娴在清华学子时代论坛上的演讲
Andrea Jung
Tsinghua University - (Beijing) Oct. 23rd
Good afternoon everyone. I can't tell you how honored
I am to be here with you to talk about my thoughts on
leadership and to share my experiences as one of only a
handful of women today running a major global
corporation.
As I look out at all of you .... some at the
beginning stages of your careers....some well along the
road to your future.... wherever you are on your own
personal path I can promise you a world of opportunity
and excitement. Anything you choose to do is within your
reach. How far you go will depend on how high you set
your dreams and how hard you work to achieve them. But
whatever path you take, the foundation provided by a good
education will make success come that much easier, I
promise you.
I have shared my experiences on leadership with many
different groups of people all over the world. But being
here in the country where my parents and grandparents
were born - a country to which I continue to feel strong
1
emotional and intellectual ties -- is an enormous
privilege and a dream come true.
I consider myself a relatively recent member of a new
generation of business leaders faced with a dizzying pace
of change and a global economic and political environment
that are redefined by the day in this tumultuous 21st
century.
I was offered the job as CEO of Avon four years ago,
and it has certainly been an experience of a lifetime for
me ever since. We've had a spectacular success,
modernizing everything about the company from top to
bottom.
With sales that this year will top $6.7 billion USD
and a stock price which is at an all-time high, we've
certainly had some incredible results. Avon has been
named one of Fortune magazine's most admired companies
and we've made Business Week's list of the world's most
valuable brands for three years in a row.
You may not realize this, but Avon does business in
143 countries and we sell our products through more than
four million independent sales representatives through
our now-famous direct selling distribution model.

Of all the countries where Avon does business, China
is without doubt our fastest growing market. Avon entered
China in 1990, and we were the first international direct
selling company to open our doors here. Over the years we
have adapted our selling techniques to the unique needs
of the Chinese consumer. Today, we sell our products in a
variety of different ways, with broad distribution
through 5,000 independent Beauty Boutiques, owned and
operated by entrepreneurs who are building successful
Avon businesses.
The majority -more than three-quarters-- of these
Beauty Boutique owners are women, in keeping with Avon's
founding principles of providing business and financial
opportunities for women. This is really the core of our
business vision and it is consistent from market to
market all over the world.
Today, Avon is proudly known as "The Company for
Women" in every country in which we do business. And our
ability to provide women with both quality products and a
significant earnings opportunity has become an important
competitive advantage.
It is one of the reasons our business in China has
grown so rapidly right from the start. Over the past four
