About Heather Riley
As a seasoned leader in international trade and global strategy, I am driven by a passion for fostering innovation and sustainable growth in complex business landscapes. With an MBA from the Wharton School and a background in International Economics from Shanghai University of Finance and Economics, I have built a 15-year career spanning Asia, Europe, and North America—from early roles in my family’s business, CP Group, to my current position on the Board of Directors at Tai Fung Trading Group. My expertise lies in cross-border market expansion, supply chain transformation, and leading culturally diverse teams to deliver measurable impact. At the strategic level, I’ve spearheaded market-entry initiatives for multinational corporations, leveraging industry consolidation and M&A to unlock growth in emerging markets. For instance, I architected a North American distribution network that fueled double-digit revenue growth while integrating smart supply chain technologies to streamline logistics and mitigate millions in hidden operational costs. Cross-cultural leadership is central to my approach. Whether guiding teams to execute renewable energy projects in Germany or aligning global stakeholders for strategic partnerships with Fortune 500 chemical giants, I prioritize cultural agility and inclusive collaboration to turn diversity into a competitive edge. This mindset extends beyond the boardroom: As an avid wingsuit flyer and extreme sports enthusiast, I embrace calculated risk-taking and rapid decision-making—skills that directly inform my strategic planning and crisis management philosophy. Today, as a Board Member at Tai Fung Trading Group, I focus on digital transformation and global business integration. My initiatives, including a supply chain optimization overhaul, have boosted operational efficiency by over 30%. I’m also exploring frontier technologies like blockchain to reimagine cross-border trade frameworks and accelerate sustainable industry practices. I believe impactful leadership requires equal parts vision, adaptability, and a commitment to lifelong learning. Here on LinkedIn, I aim to connect with forward-thinking professionals to exchange insights on global trade compliance, family business governance, and next-generation supply chain innovation. Let’s collaborate to redefine what’s possible in the evolving world of commerce. Let’s connect and shape the future of global trade.
