About

In 2014 Tatiana Zeledón Castro joined Herbalife, after receiving what she describes as the ‘best offer of my life’, giving her the possibility to work as legal counsel for a multinational company located in Costa Rica with responsibility for Central America and the Dominican Republic. Since then Zeledón has supported the company on all processes, internal and external with the objective to be a business partner and help the company minimise its legal risks with proactive advice. This has included partnering with logistics marketing finance events, regulatory affairs and any other departments in a way that they can consider legal as a team member during any projection creation or implementation. She has since reorganised the information and interdepartmental communication lines, she has also created a system to handle exception so user can more efficiently receive the service and make urgent requests. Zeledón has also encouraged proactive teamwork and alignment by encouraging constant communication, thanks to her ‘the legal department always has an open door to hear to guide or to ask with you to other departments’. In order to maintain a high performing team Zeledón emphasises the importance of her work as a successful leader ‘a true leader always inspires other to keep doing the things right, motivates you to be better and helps you on your path’. It is to this end that she is constantly looking to lead by example in the best way possible committed to the company and the organisation.
