Becky McCullough's decade at HubSpot has been defined by one core philosophy: focus on the work itself, not the title. From executive search to leading teams at McKinsey, and now as VP of Talent Acquisition at HubSpot, she's built her career by doing great work and letting recognition follow.
You'll hear why she believes you should always take the call (even when you're happy where you are), her framework for evaluating opportunities based on skills rather than job descriptions, and the hyper-scheduling system that keeps her productive without burning out.
Becky also shares the conversation that led her from consulting to tech, and why she tells her team to look externally—even when she doesn't want them to leave. Her approach to leadership is built on transparency, communication, and the belief that if you bring people along through change, sustainable success follows.
An authentic conversation about building careers on impact, leading with intention, and why great work speaks louder than any title.
