Lisa McCormack-Moon - Fortinet - Woman of the Week

What happens when you combine curiosity, resilience, and a willingness to embrace imperfection? You get a leader like Lisa McCormack-Moon, Senior Director of Partner Experience at Fortinet. In this week's Women of the Week conversation, Lisa shares how one simple philosophy has shaped her leadership journey: nothing is perfect, and everything is a trade-off.  

From navigating career-defining opportunities that pushed her beyond her comfort zone to building the confidence that comes from grit, perseverance, and leaning on the expertise of those around her, Lisa offers a refreshing perspective on growth. She reflects on overcoming moments of self-doubt, developing the "muscle memory" to tackle challenges head-on, and why some of the most valuable learning happens when you're the least knowledgeable person in the room. 

Lisa's passion for continuous learning shines through as she discusses leading through complexity, empowering her team to grow through experience, and embracing emerging technologies like AI with both excitement and curiosity. Her message is a powerful reminder that leadership isn't about having all the answers—it's about staying adaptable, trusting the process, and never stopping the pursuit of growth.
