Who Run the World? - ePayPolicy

In celebration of International Women’s Day 2018, ePayPolicy highlights inspiring women like Malala Yousafzai, a Pakistani education activist and youngest Nobel laureate who survived an assassination attempt and founded the Malala Fund, and Alex Hisaka, a senior marketing manager with a diverse career at LinkedIn, Salesforce, and PayPal, both exemplifying powerful female leadership across different fields.

In honor of International Women’s Day 2018, the ePayPolicy team compiled a short list of some truly amazing women everyone should know about. Whether you work in retail, at home, with children, or across the globe, the women below (and millions more not listed) are forces of nature to be reckoned with.


Who she is: Malala Yousafzai

What she does: The Pakistani native is an activist for female education. She is especially known for human rights advocacy, particularly for the education of women and children in her native home, where the local Taliban had at times banned girls from attending school. Her advocacy has grown into an international movement.

Why she’s awesome: No list of kick-butt women would be complete without the seemingly fearless Pakistani activist. At just 20 years young, Malala already bears the title of youngest Nobel Prize laureate. She is also a survivor of an assassination attempt in retaliation for her activism, the founder of the non-profit organization, the Malala Fund, and a New York Times Bestseller for I am Malala, which she co-authored.

An expert in all-things-marketing, Hisaka has built her outstanding career from the ground up, starting with her love of writing. That passion eventually led to a career path in multiple industries, establishing her as an integral part of the success to any team.

Why she’s awesome: “I am a force of nature in fierce stilettos,” writes Saint John on her Twitter, and she is right!

Who she is: Kitty Ambers

What she does: Chief Executive Officer at NetVU

Why she’s awesome: Kitty now lives in ePayPolicy’s home state of Texas! More than that, Ambers is the CEO of one of the most visible companies in the insurance space. While women make up 44% of the S&P 500 labor force, only 6% of those women are CEOs. That means Kitty Ambers is a superhero! With an extensive background in the insurance industry, Ambers is leading the charge on leadership. Whether she’s leading her team at NetVU or leading other women to reach for executive positions, she’s doing it with style, grace, and undeniable swagger.
