In this episode, we sit down with Nicole Dennis, Commercial Director at Diageo whose journey from a farm in regional Victoria to the helm of global FMCG brands is nothing short of inspiring. 

Raised with a strong work ethic and deep resilience, she shares how her rural upbringing shaped her leadership style, her transition to city life for education, and the pivotal moments that defined her career at Unilever, Arnott’s, and now Diageo. 

We explore her path through a commerce degree with an economics focus, her perspective on women in leadership, and how she balances strategic thinking with authentic leadership in a competitive industry.

This is a story of grit, growth, and breaking glass ceilings - from the paddocks to the boardroom.
