While at PepsiCo, Nooyi was the chief architect of “Performance with Purpose,” the company’s pledge to do what’s right for the business by focusing on delivering sustained growth by making more nutritious products, limiting its environmental footprint and protecting the planet, and empowering its associates and people in the communities it serves.

During the ATD conference, Nooyi will be greeted by a global audience of attendees from more than 90 countries. These professionals lead the efforts to prepare for the future of work through developing the knowledge and skills of today’s workforce.
