Igniter of the Year 2016. Well I know that I'm an optimist. I'm an idealist. I see a world different than the one we live in today. Imagine a world where the vast majority of us feel inspired to go to work, feel safe when we're there, and return home at the end of each day feeling fulfilled. I believe fulfillment must not be a luxury for the lucky few. Fulfillment is our human right. When I come across someone who, not only shares in this vision, but they advance it in a hugely meaningful, significant and impactful way, I want to recognize, honor and thank them. I'm so delighted to present the Igniter of the Year Award to Garry Ridge, CEO of WD-40. Some of my team members and I got to surprise him with the award this afternoon in San Diego. Inspire on!!

Fact: More men need to support women. We're a part of Women's Entrepreneurship Week in Milwaukee this year for three main reasons. ▪️ Change needs to happen. ▪️ We're super intentional about our culture and as we grow we want to have diverse voices on our team, so that we can be better as a team. We need more women to do that. ▪️ Reread the first sentence of this post. At events/weeks like this men often feel like they're not included and I want to challenge every dude out there (especially if you're in Milwaukee) to do the following: ▪️ Go to more female organized events (I'll put the link to the week below) ▪️ Take a minute or two to send your appreciation out to the women in your network that are absolutely crushing it out there.

Our company has officially more than doubled in size. We have a team of 10 (eleven if you include my pup). It's awesome looking back to see how far we've come in a short time... but even cooler looking to the future. Here are some things that we've done differently than my previous ventures that failed in the past. - Being intentional about the culture we have/intend to build. This will turn off many people from working with you, but will attract the RIGHT people. - We & I. We work as a group and we help everyone individually as well. One of the first questions we ask when hiring is "how can we bring value to you?" - Being honest even when it hurts. This took me a while to figure out a balance. But I'm a very blunt person. We make less mistakes that way and grow closer as a team when we just say it as it is. - Going to the talent... not relying on the talent coming to us. We get resumes and requests to work with us every day. Which is incredible. But one thing we learned early on is that [typically for us] the people that are the best fit are already employed or not looking. You have to be proactive & patient. There isn't anyone on this planet that I'd rather be building this company with. What are you most excited about in 2019? #justQ 🖤 📸 Rob …see more

I want YOU to know about THIS amazing woman. Jennifer A. Garrett, JD, LLM, MBA is a single mother of FIVE beautiful children with SEVEN degrees, and TWENTY+ years of experience with Fortune 100 organizations. She's a former Army lawyer and author of the book I'm holding in this picture called, Move The Ball. Despite naysayers and judgement, she used her obsession of football to push her corporate training and hunger for success and teamwork forward. So let me tell you a little secret... She's one of my BIGGEST inspirations... When I'm exhausted from hospital treatments, speaking engagements, pressing client deadlines and family obligations... I think of her and her many accomplishments and I'm reminded that anything is possible with determination. She's always got a smile on her face and a can-do attitude.

I'm really realizing how far we've come & how much of that we owe to the people that support us. - Helping us lock down our first office space over a year ago. - Picking us up at the airport when we travel. - Referring clients, employees, and other opportunities. - Grabbing coffee with us. - Sharing our content. - And so on. Saying that it means the world, wouldn't mean enough. I never want to forget what got us to where we are, and what will get us to where we are going. So thank you: for taking the time to read this post/watch this reel. Here's to a wicked year two & all of the misfits out there building their dreams. #justQ 🖖🏽🖤 #entrepreneur #businessowner …see more

🍗🍗🍗 A fried chicken triple hat win?!?!? LinkedIn Top Voice (not once, twice, but three times) 3-4 years ago, I hardly hanged out on LinkedIn, I thought it was a place to find jobs and put up your resume. It was hardly a place for a creative nor an entrepreneur. But... LinkedIn has changed... It changed to be a content creator's heaven. It changed to be a community. It changed to be a channel (for all). Being a LinkedIn channel has opened many doors for me, and I love to share this win with everyone. You can be a voice on LinkedIn. I spent many hours perfecting communication and video skills. Still, it's starts with your knowledge and personality. Your voice and experience is unique. Be a channel on LinkedIn. Be The-Go-To Channel. Be the voice. I've set up a #stringcomp I'm giving away a Blinkist subscription to help someone level up their content game.

🎉WHOA, I had a blast with you all, guns blazin' and donuts glazin'!🍩 In a world filled with stress, noise, and crisis, it would be easy to believe that real social connection has lost its magic... But that couldn't be further from the truth! And this group proved that last night. We sold out in a few days (even though the tickets were free) and we had a couple of tech hiccups... 1) Waiting Room We discovered that when we are ALL in breakout rooms, there isn't anyone left hanging around to admit those in the waiting room... so if you showed up 10 min late, that's my fault - we hope you can join us next time, on time 😉 2) Host Overwhelm The host has to admit people, present/speak, AND control breakout room assignments. It's best to have multiple HOSTS if you can! The introvert in me is loving this social distancing, but I have missed your smiling faces and cannot wait to catch up next time! If you're eager to learn about more LinkedIn Virtual events, comment "Count me in!" and I'll tag you as soon as we share the next eventbrite link or add you to the even here...

Feeling so dazzled by all of the AMAZING connections made over the past year despite the many obstacles - 80,000 decided to reach out to me and I couldn't be more thrilled! Here's the thing, those numbers don't mean a thing unless we can give back! So here are three people you DON'T want to miss! Carrie Bohlig 🎤 - one of my favorite humans (plus my son has a major 1st-grade crush on her daughter) 😂 "We do life with the people we mentor." Michael Ray 💛😁 - the smile guy that shares his incredible joy of life and humans regularly which is the ultimate gift we all need. "How to be joyful can be found in our people." Raquel Borras🦚 - a soul sister that brings real and raw conversations to encourage growth and transformation. "Don't be intimidated by a number of followers and create a meaningful connection." These people are all EXTRAORDINARY and I feel so incredibly blessed to have crossed paths with them in our careers. Over the next few weeks, I will continue to highlight people in my community that was a part of the XXO LIVE session! Who are the power players in YOUR community?

I am so very proud of, and inspired by, the five young Kenyan girls who will be representing the African continent at Google 's headquarters in this year's international Technovation Challenge competition, where girls pitch the mobile apps they've developed to end problems in their communities. Other Technovation sponsors include Verizon and the United Nations The five students from Kisumu in Western #Kenya developed I-cut, an app that connects girls at risk of Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) with rescue centers, and which offers legal and medical help to those who have been cut. My heartfelt congratulations to Stacy Owino, Purity Achieng, Ivy Akinyi, Synthia Otieno and Macrine Atieno as they head to California on August 6. They are such powerful embodiments of the limitless potential and innovation that exist from within the African continent. via Daniel Wesangula for Thomson Reuters Foundation News #Africa #Kenya #Technology #STEM #Girls #Gender …see more

Great job on paneling Catherine Idylle  (and not pictured  Allison Shaw   Margo Stern   Fahrettin Tasdelen )! Cool reunion with Eric Xiao   Calvin Woo  too! 🙂 Few takeaways from session if you're interested: - Take into consideration of temporary, situational, and permanent abilities when designing products - Treat everyone with dignity during user research  - Listen to all customers, especially if they're not your mainstream market - Inclusivity is beyond abilities, but also includes socioeconomics, age, race, gender, and more - Be familiar with accessibility compliancy like WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines), Section 508: Accessibility, ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) - A good resource to get started is Microsoft Inclusive Design Principles (link below)  #BeInfinity Lessons …see more

Kiely walked into our office and showed us her syllabus for one of her classes. - Create / Update your LinkedIn profile - Make 5 connections - Add skills to your profile - etc. Which is great. LinkedIn is awesome and students can totally benefit from the platform. But, Kiely crushes it with us and she has already obliterated all the expectations set out for her. Simply because she was persistent when we were looking for a marketing assistant and she's been able to learn by doing. And I want to stress that it's rarely about where you go to school. Or where you work. Or who you work for. It's about what you do with where you are and what you have. Resourcefulness > Resources. Always. The reason why we brought Kiely onto the team is 1). she fit our culture. And 2). She's wicked talented. 3).

This week, the #500family gained a new member: Megan Cantwell , our new social media intern. Here’s are the 3 ways she stood out in her interview: 1. Remained Calm - Many of the candidates I interviewed were visibly nervous. Megan remained calm and was able to smile and laugh which made her much more personable. 2. Thank You - Megan was one of only 3 candidates who sent a thank you email after each round of interviews. 3. Great Questions - Interviewing for an internship isn’t the most technical thing in the world. That said, Megan was quick to ask questions about our culture and the day-to-day responsibilities, as well as, ask me about my experience at the company.

2020 marks S’well’s 10th Anniversary and, despite covid, we have so much to celebrate. This year alone we launched our first global campaign, brought on a new CEO, secured B Corp certification and helped essential workers with our #forthefrontlines program. As I take a moment to reflect on reaching 10 and the many milestones we've achieved, I want to say thank you to everyone who has helped us get this far.

So excited to welcome Daniyal Malik to the #BeInfinity 🚀 team! I first chatted with Daniyal last year when he expressed interest in interning with me. I enjoyed our engagement a lot because of his eagerness to learn and grow. He was also one of the few people who followed up as well. Daniyal later attended an event that I hosted at Google with Mona Weng (also our guest for this week’s show!). At the end of the panel, Daniyal approached me in person to follow up and ask how he could help me with my upcoming projects. Unfortunately at the time, I didn’t have any roles open. However, that experience left a lasting impression and made him stood out among the crowd. When we were looking to expand the Zero to Infinity podcast, Daniyal was the first person I thought of. If you've applied to a job or considered just reaching out to people who inspire you and wish to work with them, take notes of Daniyal. His approach was genuine, personable, and memorable. Welcome to the team to help build out the Zero to Infinity Community, Daniyal! …see more

Today Function of Beauty announced a $150M Series B led by top consumer fund L Catterton (associated with LVMH). This is the second Series B in our portfolio this week! In Jan 2017, SoGal Ventures barely existed yet and Function of Beauty was our very first investment. When we decided to invest, we didn’t even have the funds in our bank account yet. The small round was opened up a few weeks after we cold emailed the contact info on the website and expressed interest in investing, and it was quickly snapped up by Bessemer, a long established, huge VC fund in Silicon Valley. We made it into the round, and wired almost all of the first check we received to Function of Beauty. Function of Beauty is now a clear world leader in personalized beauty, with custom product lines from hair care, body care, to skincare. We’re very proud of Zahir Dossa, Ph.D. , Joshua Maciejewski , Hien Kaplan , and the diverse team who built a world-class digital brand.

There are GIVERS and there are TAKERS. The givers don't take because they believe they already have it all 💜 I have learned that when you have a roof over your head, shoes on your feet and food in your belly, you've already got it all. Especially when you are surrounded by love 💘 Not giving does the world a disservice. Even if it is simply the gift of time, hope, and support. So I am teaching my son what it means to volunteer and work hard for nothing but smiles in return. We are sending hand written letters and art with each request for these ear guards we are printing for essential workers. Otto's hearts look like butts. This is good. 😂 Maybe it'll spread a few more smiles 😊 If you have loved ones that are essential workers on the front lines that need some ear relief from surgical masks, tell me below!
