A few months after joining LinkedIn, I was struggling to adjust from entrepreneur to pm at a larger company. I went to Ryan’s office (a fast-rising exec with at the time with this killer profile) and let him know it was best for everyone if I moved on.
The next morning, I came into work and there was Ryan, sitting right next to me in our little shared cubicle. He told me he had decided to change desks. I learned more watching him in those next few months, and had more fun, than I ever have at work. And thanks to his act of kindness, I ended up not quitting.
Ryan Roslansky, you’re one of a kind leader and friend. Thank you for always setting the bar on doing well & doing good for each other.like 242love 130celebrate 32support 4insightful 3
It's usually about learning longest, rather than fastest. Plateauing is the enemy.

Still buzzing from the Forbes CMO Summit last week!
We talked a lot about AI, creators and where marketing is headed. But honestly, my favourite part was how real the conversations were.
No one has all the answers right now. Being a CMO now is wild! And I think the best leaders are comfortable saying that. They’re honest about what they know, what they don’t, and what they’re still figuring out.... winning AND struggling with AI, handling geopolitical waves, higher growth targets and more.
I loved getting into some of that with Musa Tariq and Carly Gomez as we talked about what it really means to be a CMO today, and how we can help support the next gen of marketing leaders. (My hawt take: get out of marketing for a while. Go do Sales or Product or BD... learn the economics of the business from another chair. It will make you a better marketer.)
Huge thanks to CEO Sherry Phillips and Linda Boff, the new magical leader of this CMO group, for creating a room with so much honesty, generosity and openness. ❤️like 139love 28celebrate 17insightful 2support 2
Something I’ve come to notice over the years:
The most truly talented people are often the easiest people to work with. Maybe that’s not a coincidence.
