This is the second of a two-part interview with Tricia Benn, the Executive Vice President of the C‑Suite Network and General Manager of The Hero Club, an invitation-only membership organization for CEOs, founders and investors.
In addition to sitting on multiple business, associations and not-for-profit boards, Benn served as a senior executive for three enterprise-level organizations in market research, telecommunications, media marketing, and advertising.
As Global Chief Marketing & Strategy Officer and U.S. Managing Director within MDC Partners, a $3 billion global holding company, Benn’s leadership drove double digit growth year-over-year and new contracts with some of the most important impact players in the world.
In this episode, Audrey, Lee and Tricia discuss:
- Managing negative responses to other C‑Suiters
- Choice Sets – Use them!
- Avoiding unconscious bias
- Vulnerability and how it plays into moving up
- #1 Tip on what to focus on to succeed
"Being a woman executive I’ve really just had my nose to the grindstone and worked like a maniac. You have to compete with men."
