Stalder named among 100 Most Influentia­l Filipina

-

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, 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.

Ms. 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 FDAapprove­d 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, Ms. 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.
