ABOUT ANNIE WU
I work at the intersection of people, purpose, and responsible business.Across my career I have focused on one core question: how organizations create workplaces where people, values, and business performance reinforce each other.Today I serve as Director of Global Labor Relations (International) at McDonald’s, working across markets to help navigate complex labor environments while strengthening fair, consistent employment practices and constructive social dialogue.Previously, I was Global Head of People Identity & Purpose at H&M Group, where I helped shape how the company embedded employee and labor standards, inclusion and diversity, purpose, and employee experience into the core of the organization’s operating model. The goal was always the same: translating values into structures, governance, and everyday leadership practices.My career began in labor and employment law negotiating with international unions on the management side. That foundation continues to inform how I approach global workforce issues today, balancing legal, operational, and cultural realities in large multinational organizations.I believe the future of leadership requires companies to integrate responsible labor practices, inclusion, and workforce sustainability into the way business is run, not as initiatives, but as core strategy.
