MEET THE WOMEN WHO HELP LEAD MASTERCRAFT
Jan Morton
VP of Supply Chain, MCBH
I consider myself blessed that the marine industry has been part of my life for more than half my life; however, I will say that being a female in the marine industry thirty-six years ago was somewhat intimidating as the industry was undeniably a male dominated industry. Fortunately, thirty-six years ago when I began my employment in the marine industry there was one female in a leadership position in my company. The fact that a female held a leadership position inspired me and gave me hope that I, too, could achieve leadership roles within the company. Young women can achieve great success in business. My advice to every young woman that possesses the desire to succeed in business is to Let. It. Rip! Exude confidence in yourself while staying humble, seek mentorship, build strong business relationships, help others succeed, go above and beyond, seek projects outside your assigned responsibilities, demonstrate a work ethic that would make your parents proud and know that it is ok to be firm in your business dealings as long as you remain fair. You’ve got this! Do not ever give up. Get out there, shine and Let. It. Rip!

You can only find out how great you can be and all that you can accomplish by following your dreams. Always hold true to who you are; never abandon your beliefs and values. Success requires courage, dedication, hard-work and confidence in your ability to succeed. Welcome new experiences, even if you fear them; they will make you stronger. There may be times that it feels like you are climbing Mount Everest, stand strong and Let. Her. Rip to accomplish your goals and be the best you can be!

Here’s what “Let Her Rip” means to me. It means embracing your strengths, acknowledging your weaknesses and accepting who you are. It means being willing to fail but also learning from the failures. It means stopping to lift up others along the way and always remembering those who stopped to lift you up. It means committing to be a better person every day. It means less judging and more empathy. It means recognizing life’s hardships and compensating with kindness. It means leading bravely even when you’re scared: rolling up your shirt sleeves to help your team. It means remembering we’re all in this journey together, but yours is what you make it.
Natalie Childress
Business Strategy Manager, MasterCraft Boats
Let Her Rip to me means having the strength, motivation and determination to exceed the status quo, giving it everything you have. I learned in sports which transitioned into life, “leave it all on the field.” That also means learning from your experiences and living without regrets. There’s always a way to achieve your goal and sometimes it’s going to be hard. It can be uncomfortable. But it’s those uncomfortable moments that shape us, and pave the way for the next generation. Dare to be different and never give up. Lead by example and surround yourself with positive, inspirational and motivated individuals. Out of 100 people that say “you can’t do that,” strive to be one that says “how and what do I need so I can?”
