Just seemed like a dream back then. And he's like this boy

It's really hard cause I don't get to make things anymore. Just manage people. So I love what you said. The higher you go up, your priority becomes of people. You said you learn this from Lisa Donnelly, your VP of Marketing at the time. How did you learn this from Lisa?

Ashley Levesque: I was feeling frustrated in my role. I was a senior marketing manager. I was very hands on. I was executing all of the campaigns. I was looking at all of the numbers and for some reason I still was feeling disconnected to the larger corporate objectives. I wasn't sure if I was meeting expectations, I wasn't sure if I was providing value.

And so I went to Lisa and I said, What are your paraguay whatsapp resource priorities? Like what? What are your objectives? What are you focused on this quarter or this year? And she looked me in the eye and she said, It's you, you're my priority. And I was like, my gosh, I, I, I didn't appreciate that her responsibility was to keep this team executing the way that they were.

Now, she helped me, of course, feel more connected to the corporate objectives and what I was working on and helped me better see the impact there. That's her job and she wanted me to know that she cared about that. She cared that I was feeling discontented and unclear. She wanted to help me bridge those gaps because retaining me was really important to her.

It was helping her with her objectives and making sure that the business was able to continue operating the way that it needed to operate in the business goals. But I didn't appreciate it until I got higher up and started managing full time myself, where I was like. yeah. I see your point that you said I am really moving out of execution mode here.
