If you’re wondering whether your role is becoming obsolete, maybe it’s time to build the next one. Every job Paulita David has ever had didn’t exist before she stepped into it. She’s the U.S. Large Customer Sales Lead at Reddit and spent a decade at Google, where she became the highest-ranking Latina at the company. She built teams that consistently outperformed. Google even studied her leadership to understand why. The answer? An unconscious bias toward diversity. In this episode of The Breadwinners, host Rachael Lowell talks with Paulita about and why diverse teams outperform, why the best careers are often the ones you invent yourself, and of course, how not to punch yourself in the face.
