Roxanne Jones: How important is resilience in terms of what you look for in candidates? "I think that when you're in tech, because if we've been discussing, things are constantly changing" She says Unbound looks for people who have courage and ambition but also empathetic qualities. 'Not everybody's gonna work through everything the same way,' she adds.

Having a people-first philosophy does not mean neglecting the health of your business.
Investing in people is a smart business decision.
In episode #139, Felicia talks about Unbounce's "people first" philosophy, which involves creating an environment where everyone can bring their best selves to work, learn collectively, and grow together to create their best work.
Felicia Bochicchio has over 25 years of experience helping companies scale in high-growth environments. She joined Unbounce as Chief Revenue Officer in June 2018 and was promoted to President in 2020 after the company raised its first major round of funding, a $52 million deal. Today, she is the CEO of Unbounce.
Felicia also talks about the importance of assessing whether people coming into the company share the company's values, rather than training them on the values.
Tune in to hear all about Felicia’s leadership journey and the lessons learned along the way!
