Behind the Scenes with Katie
Nauman
Petco CMO Katie Nauman talks about her unconventional path, why timing is everything, and what she's learned from her daughters during their kitchen-table chats.
I've had the opportunity to connect with and learn from executives of major brands at MediaPost's Insider Summits. In the process I've discovered some truly impressive women, and not only for
the work they do but their stories behind the scenes.
With Brand Insider: BTS, I get to pull back the curtain on some of the most influential women marketers as they
talk about their path to success: the twists and turns, obstacles, inspirations and the valuable lessons learned along the way.
“It was one of those early moments in my
career where it just felt right, and I trusted my gut instinct, and I kind of had to swallow my pride.” That instinct was to turn down a high-paying job for an $8 an hour internship. But Katie
Nauman has no regrets because the Petco CMO believes it’s what ultimately set her marketing career in motion. In this episode of Brand Insider: BTS, Katie talks with me about work-life balance,
the duality of her career path and why not speaking up for oneself can be detrimental to all involved. You can watch the video of the entire conversation here.
