Deborah Whittemore

Senior Director, Global Real Estate Strategy & Operations

PepsiCo

As the Senior Director of Strategy and Operations at PepsiCo Global Real Estate, I am known as a connector, a catalyst for transformation, and a leader in strategic
innovation. I believe in the power of connections – if I don’t know the answer, I know
someone who does. I’m often the one setting up meetings and stepping back, ensuring
the right people come together for impactful collaboration.

With a robust finance background, I bring transformational ideas to the table daily. My
approach is about making a tangible impact now, not later. In times of challenge, I excel
in rapid problem-solving, helping teams strategize and progress cohesively. My focus is
on building a high-performance team and developing a world-class real estate
organization that connects all the dots in the areas of sustainability, internal stakeholder
governance, and strategic partnerships, aligning our operations with the company’s
broader goals. My passion is ensuring my team and I provide value in every interaction.
I am passionate about creating sustainable, efficient environments that not only serve
our colleagues and customers but also contribute positively to our planet. I thrive on
being an integral leader, driving core projects and initiatives for PepsiCo as a part of the
Global Real Estate team.

Deborah has over 19 years of experience at PepsiCo and is based at the PepsiCo
Headquarters in Purchase, NY.
