Heather Gilletti joined Sendible at the start of 2019 as our first US-based, customer-facing employee. A few months later, she was promoted to Customer Success Manager. At the time, one of our goals was to get closer to our customers, so Heather was tasked with not only leading but also growing Sendible's first fully distributed department.  

In this episode, Gavin talks to Heather about:

  • How she went about successfully recruiting and leading a fully distributed team across timezones
  • Overcoming communication challenges, implementing new processes and managing change as a distributed team
  • The lack of content for managers tasked with building a remote team and the importance of building a support network
  • Her role in Sendible's social committee and how we involve remote workers in HQ-based social events
  • And much, much more...
