Amy taylor red bull biography

Amy Taylor is President and Chief Marketing Officer of Red Bull.

In her own career and development as a leader, Amy has seen the value of diversity of thought and leadership style. At Out Leadership’s OutNEXT Global Summit in 2018, Amy spoke about the evolution of her own ideas of how a leader looks and acts, and how that made her a more effective leader: “I had certain archetypes of leadership in my life, a strong jaw and toughness and presenting as such, and I played that for a while.

But in the last 10 years I’ve learned that some of my points of distinction as a leader that I’ve been able to leverage are my informality and imperfections and vulnerability.”

Amy founded and is the executive sponsor for the Inclusion and Diversity initiative at Red Bull, and she serves on several advisory committees at selected start-ups and advocacy groups, with a focus on human rights and equality.
