Katie explains why sales believed nobody would spend six figures with a company called SurveyMonkey, what changed under the new CEO, and why she now sees the monkey as an advantage. She also covers her path into marketing from communications, why more comms leaders are moving into C-suite marketing roles, and the advice she followed when she took over the function: get close to the growth team and ask your basic questions early so imposter syndrome doesn't cost you the learning.\n\nTimestamps:","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/qp2EGyx49zNMpcn-IwZXI3v-kD3r0QUel9Kwnpr1jPQ/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS8zMzlh/ODVjZDNmNjY4Mzli/MTFlNzMxZDI4ZmJm/Yzc1MC5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
