Foreword by Mary Dillon, Plus the Stories of 10 More Inspiring Leaders

Elisa Schmitz with Mary Dillon, former CEO and executive chair of Ulta Beauty, who wrote the foreword for “Become the Fire.”

Mary Dillon has always been a role model for me. A self-made success story, Mary worked her way through college then rose through the ranks at Quaker, PepsiCo and McDonald’s before landing the CEO job at UScellular. As CEO of Ulta Beauty, this visionary leader catapulted the company’s growth while building a culture of diversity and respect. Mary’s amazing achievements have served as constant inspiration to me along my journey.

I’m honored that Mary wrote the foreword to my book, Become the Fire: Transform Life’s Chaos into Business and Personal Success. In the book, Mary shares her reflections on women in business as well as a bit of her own journey, to encourage people from all walks of life to achieve their own success.

As Mary shares: “Become the Fire curates the best advice from some of the world’s top female leaders. Whether you’re just starting your career, are trying to advance, or are an established leader seeking to improve, Become the Fire will inspire you.”
