The 5 D’s: determination, dedication, discipline, diversity and direction,” shared media magnate and business mogul Martha Stewart.The 18-time Emmy Award winner and successful businesswoman was the guest of honor at the latest leg of the ANC, the ABS-CBN News Channel’s Leadership Series held at the Sofitel Philippine Plaza.
“I joined a young firm and became an institutional stockbroker … handling accounts like Manufacturers Hanover Trust and Fidelity Investments—I learned about what made a good company. We had a very good research firm where I did a lot of investigating, a lot of research, and a lot of selling and trading,” she said.
A self-confessed workaholic and neat freak, Martha took a huge gamble to take her company public, taking everyone by surprise. The pay-off: 1.6 billion dollars at the end of the first trading day.“Another thing that an entrepreneur must do is to fill a void. Need, want and void—think of all those three words all the time,” she stressed.
“Many young actresses enter the lifestyle market. You have Gwyneth Paltrow, Jennifer Garner, Jessica Alba—the younger gang—and they are doing a very nice job of doing their entrepreneurial endeavors and I support them. I was just on ‘Dr. Oz’ with Jennifer Garner and I surprised her on the show. It was such a success that we had so much fun talking about the baby food that she is making.”
Being partnered with Snoop Dogg, a cannabis advocate and owner of “Leafs by Snoop,” got Martha into another partnership—this time with a Canadian cannabis company, Canopy Growth Corporation and this earned her the moniker, “America’s Cool Weed Grandma.”
