Amy Alcala

Director, Global Internal Operations Communications

Amazon

Amy Alcala, director of global internal communications for operations for Amazon, has spent her career supporting frontline employees at iconic and high-growth organizations. At Amazon she and her team spend their days obsessing over the experience of the 223,000 Amazonians across the globe. Previously Alcala led partner communications and engagement as a vice president for Starbucks. Reaching out to 400,000 employee partners working in 24,000 stores across 74 countries, she learned what was possible by creating a shared sense of purpose and finding the intersection of logic and care. In her own words, “I’m driven by a strong sense of purpose, curiosity and responsibility—witnessing my team achieve results beyond what they thought possible and a creating a meaningful connection with the front line is what motivates me.” @amysalcala
