Lindsay Kaplan is the Co-Founder of Chief (https://chief.com/), the most powerful network of executive women in the world. What began as an idea to drive more women into power and keep them there is now a $1.1 billion unicorn with a network of 20,000 executive women who collectively manage $800 billion of the economy. Today, over 77% of Fortune 100 companies have Chief members in their ranks. Prior to founding Chief, Lindsay spent the majority of her career leading marketing for high-growth startups, including Casper, which transitioned from a mattress product company to a beloved global sleep brand under her leadership. Lindsay has been named a New York Times DealBook Groundbreaker, one of Business Insider's Most Innovative CMOs in the World, and one of Ad Age's Leading Women.

Communities are at the heart of success — building the right one can fuel your business, but when community is lacking, your organization will feel its absence. According to Lindsay Kaplan, Co-founder Chief, there are two wildly different types of communities: one made of brand advocates and followers, and another more formally official where individuals opt-in to participate. With the latter, an organization can soar, building an incredibly powerful brand. But communities aren't always intuitive. Building them takes intentionality, inclusive leadership and active investment.Join us as we discuss:How to actively invest in inclusivity and belonging to avoid lip service, build relationships and champion diversityThe vital role of internal champions in driving DEI initiativesStaying true with a mission-driven focus for genuine impact and organic growth

In this week's episode of Culture by Design, Lindsay Kaplan, head of People Development at Clif Bar joins Timothy R. Clark to talk about anxiety, vulnerability, and what it takes to be a human leader. She advocates for authenticity, empathy, and adaptability as the main characteristics of good leaders and encourages listeners to chase a growth mindset. Unique and formative beginnings (4:00). Lindsay has been working since she was sixteen years old, living in an all-female household, surrounded by incredible working females as role models. When she left that environment and launched into the world, she kept her head down and worked until she found the L&D world (which didn't take long). It's just like the first day of school (13:00). Lindsay compares onboarding to the first day of school. She explains how remote work has impacted the onboarding process for many organizations that can't quite replicate the way things used to feel. But compensation for these changes isn't the answer.Am I committed to being a human leader? (15:15). Lindsay explains what culture means to her (both professionally and individually). She and Tim discuss how human leadership can shape culture in the best ways. But leadership has gotten more complicated. Those of us who committed to being leaders five years ago may need to recommit. Are you willing to be authentic, empathetic, and adaptive?Not everyone needs to be a people leader (22:00). You can be high-performing and successful without leading others, but in order to do so, organizations need to allow for that growth. Lindsay explains that people should lead humans only when they want to and are good at it. Why can't other people lead processes, technology, and resources?Vulnerability in personal and professional life (24:00). Creating spaces for people to come together, share, ask questions, and connect has changed Linsday's professional life. In her personal life, Lindsay had to learn to let go of fear and ask for help. Acknowledging (and actively sharing) her vulnerabilities welcomed support into her life that she couldn't have found anywhere else. Learning from a growth mindset (33:00). Making mistakes is an act of vulnerability that helps us overcome complacency and actually grow. While making mistakes isn't “fun,” Tim and Lindsay agree that there's something exhilarating about it. Why am I doing it this way? And concerns about burnout (36:55). Looking forward to the next few months, what is Lindsay excited about? What is she concerned about?About Our Guest:Born and raised in California, Lindsay grew up in a household of all women, raised by a single mom. She has worked in many industries, including retail, technology, sales, beauty, and wellness, and discovered Learning and Development when she worked for a start-up in San Francisco. She saw the value of the connection that occurs for new employees when they have a good onboarding program and wanted to help people as they started one of the most vulnerable and exciting moments in their careers. Lindsay currently lead People Development at Clif Bar and company where her team's mantra is to “lay the foundation for what truly matters most; purpose, well-being, and personal/professional growth.” She is a wife and mother of two children, ages five and eight, both of who have probably taught me more about herself and her capacity for growth more than any career moment. Lindsay's goal is to help leaders and employees foster a culture of the psychological safety, inclusion, and growth. At the end of the day, she helps people do their job better while actively adding to a culture of respect and resilience.

Chief Co-founder Lindsay Kaplan wants you to be selfish. “Investing in oneself is spending the time to align your values with your goals, to reset and make sure that you’re not giving yourself away too much to your job. But, making sure that you have some feeling of wholeness," she says. What contributes to that feeling of wholeness? For Lindsay, it’s values-alignment in her work, cognitive diversity in her relationships, and creativity in her passion projects, like the screenplay she’s working on. We chat about the importance of surrounding ourselves with peers who get it, being honest when we need to take a break, and the direct link between focus and fulfillment.

Women have made strides in the workplace over the last few decades, but there’s still plenty of progress yet to be made. In particular, women are underrepresented within executive leadership of many organizations. Is that going to change in our lifetime? What progress are we making at championing gender diversity and allowing women to get ahead?To answer that question, we turned to Lindsay Kaplan, who’s been a leader in the marketing & communications field for some time now. She first came to my attention when she joined Casper’s founding team to lead communications and brand engagement. In 2019, she co-founded Chief, the private network dedicated to connecting and supporting women in executive leadership.On this episode we discuss Chief's mission, the company's COVID pivot, how the pandemic has hit working mothers especially hard, why Taylor Swift's "The Man" is a real thing, and Ruth Bader Ginsburg: her legacy and fear of what's to come next.As always, we welcome your feedback.

In 2019, Lindsay Kaplan and Carolyn Childers co-founded Chief, the exclusive network of female executives, with the mission to drive women forward into positions of power — and keep them there. And in just one year since its launch, Chief has grown to 2,000 members and now boasts a 7,000-person waiting list, also closing one of 2019's largest Series A rounds raised by a woman-led company. On this brand-new episode of The Partner Ship, Lindsay and Carolyn let us in on their big vision and even bigger plans to support women on their way up to or already in the C-suite.

Sometimes, change starts at the top. Carolyn Childers and Lindsay Kaplan weren't willing to wait to reach gender parity in the workplace, so they started Chief. These startup vets — who helped build Soap.com, Casper, and Handy — have created a community for senior women executives that already has a waitlist in the thousands. Carolyn and Lindsay share how they've built a no-judgement zone, their approach to creating a game-changing brand, and why coaching is critical to the future of work. Make sure to follow Carolyn and Lindsay on social at @childerscarolyn, @lindsaykap, and  @chiefamongstus. 

Carolyn Childers and Lindsay Kaplan are the co-founders of Chief: a private network focused on connecting and supporting female leaders with a mission to accelerate women’s presence in the C-Suite. Carolyn and Lindsay took inspiration from what they wish they had for themselves, and the result is an exciting new venture that’s challenging both of them in ways they never anticipated.
