Miyoko shared reflections from her more than three decade career at the intersection of global business and cultural stewardship. Drawing from her experience at Tiffany & Co., where she served as President of Tiffany Japan and Vice President of Global Sales Operations, she spoke about leading organizational transformation, cultivating strong company culture, and building enduring relationships with clients and teams across regions. In addition, she shared perspectives from her work as an Outside Board Director for Nintendo Co., Ltd, offering insights into governance, global strategy, and values based leadership.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
