For example, a Vice President began her career with Honeywell as director of Strategy & Business Development at Honeywell's global corporate headquarters in Morristown. In this role, she worked with our global businesses on high-impact growth projects involving Marketing, Pricing, and Financing. She also worked as part of the core corporate strategy team that drives Honeywell's strategic planning (STRAP) process, where she demonstrated great passion for increasing the region's growth. Later, while in a global role, she devoted much of her time to China-related growth initiatives. Honeywell recognized her for her significant growth within Honeywell and her passion for Asia Pacific, and promoted her to Vice President of Strategy & Business Development of Corporate China. She is now based in Honeywell's Corporate office in China, her home country.
