UPS US Marketing President Gerard Gibbons: The Road Map to Success

Gerard Gibbons, President of SMB & US Marketing for UPS, has been with the company for thirty years, starting as a package car driver. His mom, an Inglewood business owner, (who used UPS!) and step father were positive engaged role models which ensured he stayed on the right side of the tracks. Gerard did not expect to ascend to the level he is at at UPS. He had to pinch himself - a young skinny kid growing up in Inglewood - when he found himself in Sydney with Olympic athletes and C Suite executives as UPS was the Olympic sponsor. He has great humility when he speaks about being voted one of the Most Powerful Executives in America by Black Enterprise Magazine. When I asked him what he would write a book about, he said finding a mentor, a sponsor and having a sense of curiosity about the business you are in. He also emphasized the importance of networking and showing up. You never know who you are going to meet who can have influence on your career, or the next big contract. Are you an aspiring author?
