Hiring the right people and promoting a great culture is the only foundation that matters to business execution. Without the right people on your team, how can you expect to be aligned to achieve your goals?
Today we welcome Co-Founder and CEO of Blueprint Expansion, Krissy Manzano, to talk about how making the GTM space more inclusive for women and other minorities, all starts with how we hire.
Krissy is a transformative leader with 13 years of experience reshaping businesses across middle Tennessee. Starting as an individual contributor, she ascended to sales leadership before making the bold leap to become an entrepreneur. She’s passionate about supporting women in leadership and promoting diversity in hiring through actions, not merely words.
Throughout her years as a working professional, Krissy has became a stanch believer in a few matters.
First, she believes that if hiring feels like a guess to your team, then you're doing it wrong. Second, she knows hiring is largely broken because of the unconscious biases that we all have about other people.
Lucky for us, she's joins us today to talk about how we can make our hiring processes feel predictable and begin removing our team's biases to ultimately make the GTM space more inclusive (and therefore more successful).

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
