Operations with Sean Lane | Overcoming Imposter Syndrome as a New Operator with Ping Del Giudice
We’ve all at some point heard about or felt some flavor of imposter syndrome - that feeling where you are quite certain you don’t belong and you’re moments away from everyone figuring out you’re a fraud.
After talking with today’s guest, I’m more convinced than ever that that hint of doubt, that nagging imposter syndrome, is actually a really good thing.
Our guest today is Ping Del Giudice, Vice President of Revenue Operations at Leapsome. Ping was recently named to The Top 100 Revenue Operations Leaders of 2022, and still, even she experiences her own version of imposter syndrome.
In our conversation, Ping and I talk about losing all of your institutional knowledge when you leave your job, the inherit vs. build decisions you have to make when joining a new team, and the major project she found herself signing up for on just her second day on the job.
Key Points:
(00:00) Introduction
(01:51) What it feels like to enter a new profession with a blank slate
(07:14) How Ping balanced what projects she was inheriting vs. understanding what she needed to build on her own when starting her new role
(12:01) How Ping prioritized which big projects to tackle first
(17:47) Operations lightning round
