Like fellow high-flyers Sheryl Sandberg and Marissa Mayer, Kirstine Stewart has built an incredibly successful career as a media and technology executive. She got her first job when she applied for an entry-level position at a film distribution house. Having worked her way up from the bottom-under women and men, leaders good and bad-she believes it's time we looked past the question of how women might create change in the working world and exploit the fact that profound change is already under way. The digital revolution, and the wave of millennials who are entering the workforce with very different expectations than the generations who preceded them, have created an environment that demands a new style of leader-one with attributes and perspectives that make women the natural front-runners. The opportunity is there; the question Stewart poses and then tackles is: how do we seize it? Whether you're a CEO or a fledgling administrative assistant, there is something for you in Our Turn. Kirstine Stewart oversees Twitter's North American media partnerships across all vertical channels, including television, sports, music and news. Playback Magazine named Stewart its Person of the Year 2012, and Strategy Magazine recognized her leadership in taking CBC to Brand of the Year 2012. She is @kirstinestewart on Twitter.
