Another Filipina
is awarded in the 100 MOST INFLUENTIAL FILIPINA IN THE WORLD.
Dina Dela
Paz-Stalder, a skincare expert, was awarded with this prestigious recognition,
specifically in the Founder and Pioneer Category (Global FWN100 Award) in
Toronto, Canada on October 27, 2017, by Filipino Women’s Network. She was
selected from an outstanding field of nominees from around the world.
The Global
FWN100 Award™ recognizes 100 Filipino women who are changing the face of
leadership in the global workplace. It
distinguishes them for their outstanding work in their respective fields, and
further recognizes them for their achievement and contributions to
society. Dina Dela Paz-Stalder’s award
and global recognition is another evidence of Filipino pride as she proves that
Filipinos are also global leaders in terms of skincare innovations and
extraordinary leadership.
Started from
just a small steel pot for skincare formulations, she now owns and leads the Stalder Group of
Companies which includes Stalder
Laboratories Incorporation (a cGMP-certified, Halal-certified and FDA-approved
manufacturing plant located in San Pablo, Laguna), the BCP Dermatological Corporation (the
marketing arm), and the Diana Stalder
Face, Body, Skincare Center (formerly known as Dermaline Facial Center).
Aside from being
an entrepreneur, DelaPaz-Stalder is a strong advocate for
causes such as the environment and community development. For community
development, it would have been easier to build a factory in an industrial
zone, but as a farmer’s daughter, the grit and determination that served her
well in business is something she applies equally to her advocacies. So she opted instead to empower her town
mates, and give back to her hometown. As far as environment is concerned, at
all levels of production, she is adamant about waste segregation and
sludge/water recycling. Working with the Mother Earth foundation, the community
has also produced malunggay tea, mushrooms, and green charcoal. With this, Dela
Paz-Stalder was recognized with a blue ribbon award from the Laguna Lake
Development Authority, an honor bestowed upon environmentally responsible
businesses.
"I feel
overwhelmed with this recognition, as I did not expect to be given this
prestigious award.. Being one of the Most Influential Filipina Woman in the
World Award: Founder & Pioneer gives me the opportunity to show my
capability as a Filipino and as a woman in inspiring business entrepreneurs.
Now, I am more motivated to encourage more people with my story - from my
humble beginnings to the dazzling height of success. May we all continue to
work together, nurture and empower this unique group, FWN," said Dela
Paz-Stalder.
