Laura Schwab acted as President of Aston Martin of the Americas for over 5 years—a division that consists of 36 U.S. dealerships, and 8 more throughout Chile, Mexico, Peru, and Canada. Under Schwab’s leadership, global sales increased by 58%, thanks to the debuts of the Aston Martin DB11, V12, V8, and Volante. In 2018, Aston Martin was named the fastest-growing automotive brand by Brand Finance, one of the top business valuation consultants.

As one of the top women in auto, Laura Schwab’s success with Aston Martin is a testament to the fact that overlooking women in the talent pool for leadership positions is a big mistake in business. Aston Martin would not be undergoing a revival without her, and Palm Beach Gardens Aston Martin owners can thank her leadership for the strong investments recent-year Aston Martin models are sure to become.
