QUOTES

Katy on whether you can get promoted without working longer hours: "I think if you're really smart about the way you work, I do think you can still get ahead. I don't think you can skimp on work. I don't think you can work six-hour days, three day-weeks, and become a sales leader in five years."

Katy's advice for holding your team accountable: "As opposed to making someone feel like, ‘You know, yea, I'm choosing you to do this because you did something wrong. I would just create this process in my team where every 30 days we're gonna do this. We're gonna look at your numbers.’"
