If you want to sell an idea to dairy executive Beth Ford, it better be backed up with facts.
Ford, the chief operating officer of Land O’ Lakes, told Dairy Foods, “I tend to be pretty direct about this with my team. What I want is the analysis. I don't necessarily want, ‘I think. I feel.’ When you want to have a discussion about something and you have a point of view, have a point of view rooted in facts and analysis.”
