Power Women: Anne Marie Doramus
VP of Special Projects and Sales for Arkansas Bolt Company; Arkansas Game and Fish Commissioner
What’s your secret to success?
I think the most important advice is to listen, learn and to always be yourself.
What advice would you give to a young woman starting her career?
Just like in life, you’re not going to please everybody. As long as you’re doing what you’re passionate about, the path forward might be hard, but you can pave it.
Is there another “power woman” in your life who inspires you?
The list goes on with the women who inspire me. That goes back to another secret to success: Surround yourself with a multitude of different people, and you’ll learn so much from each and every one of them.
What are you reading/watching/listening to right now?
Reading: “The Palace Papers” by Tina Brown.
Watching: “Yellowstone.”
Listening to: The Arkansas Game and Fish podcast.
Do you have a favorite quote?
My grandfather, Harry Hastings, has always said, “The most important thing you own is your name.” Even when you think no one’s watching, they are.
