UPCOMING EVENTS

You’re even having a great hair day. You sit down with your morning coffee to respond to email, and you happen upon a harsh review on Yelp for your service. They wrote a full paragraph, explaining how unhappy they are. The day progresses, and you try to forget about it, but you can’t. In fact, it’s got you really down.

Does this sound like you?

One of my favorite authors dedicated an entire chapter in her book on how to handle feedback and criticism. She says “Feedback tells you about the priorities and preferences of the person giving it. If its not coming from your target audience, then move on. If it is coming from your target audience, then pay attention.”

Tara Mohr speaks on the evening of May 12th on this important subject for women leaders. Join us at 6pm EST.

About Jenna Fagnan and Teremana Tequila

https://teremana.com/

Jenna Fagnan is co founder of Teremana Tequila with Founder, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. Teremana launched in March 2020 and has already begun to capture the imagination and passion of consumers and has shipped 400,000 9L cases in the first 12 months in business.

Fagnan serves on the board of Proper No. Twelve Irish Whiskey, a brand she helped create and where she still advises. Proper No. Twelve recently sold a majority stake to a multi-national corporation and is widely considered one of the fastest growth brands in the last 20 years. The brand also boasts the largest social media following of any wine and spirit in the world, which was created purely with organic engagement.

In 2010, Fagnan left her high-profile position at LVMH to launch Tequila Avión, as President of the company, alongside Founder Ken Austin. Avión quickly became an international brand and led a boom in the tequila category. They sold the business to multi-national corporation Pernod Ricard.

Prior to Tequila Avión, Fagnan was Vice President of Sales and Marketing for TAG Heuer, a division of LVMH. From 2002, Fagnan was Managing Director for Dom Pérignon USA (LVMH). During her tenure Fagnan managed all aspects of Dom Pérignon’s division and not only brought growth back to the iconic champagne brand, but also achieved record double-digit sales and profit growth. Concurrently, she led the champagne portfolio strategy for the group, and also introduced Ruinart champagne to the American market in 2005.

Fagnan was born in Alaska and grew up in coastal Oregon. She earned a Masters of Business Administration from Harvard University and a Bachelor of Science degree from Trinity University in San Antonio. Fagnan is actively involved in charitable organizations such as Girls Inc. and the Elevado Foundation, a Foundation she created to support an orphanage she helped build in Mexico. Fagnan resides in New York City with her husband and two daughters.
