ONE WAY TO BEAT SEXISM

TICKING TIMECARDS

THIRDLOVE’S FREE LOVE

REAL ESTATE’S NEXT MOVE • When Rich Barton co-founded Zillow in 2005, he knew the virtual homebuying and rental marketplace would shape the future of real estate. Now, after nearly two decades as Zillow’s CEO, Barton offers founders advice for capitalizing on the next big real estate boom.

STRETCH GOALS • SARAH BIRD, EVP AND CHIEF REVENUE OFFICER OF MOZ GROUP

I SHOULD HAVE CRIED SOONER

Technology Gives This Payments Company Its Edge • Electronic Payments unveils end-to-end payment processing platform 21 years after being founded in a dorm

AVOID THE CEDE ROUND • My own experience trying to buy gym equipment through a distributor is a lesson in modern customer service—and the value in going direct.

YES, IT’S OK TO SAY NO • For most of us, saying no doesn’t come easy—but for effective leaders, it’s a critical skill.

HUMAN SCALE • How I discovered the antidote to digital behemoths that can dominate—and decimate—whole industries.

A Private Equity Firm That Takes An Individual Approach • There’s no correct playbook because founders and their businesses are each unique

Down to Their Last Dollar

MAKING A BIGGER SPLASH • Hint founder and CEO Kara Goldin talks to Park Place Payments founder and CEO Samantha Ettus about breaking into a new industry with an unconventional strategy.

Operational Expertise, Industry Focus, and Personal Relationships Set This Firm Apart • L Catterton, a global leader in consumer investing, explains how its investment in The Honest Company epitomizes its approach to partnership

HOW TO MAKE TIME • When a founder offloads payroll, IT, and HR, the calendar replaces the obligation with opportunity.

FEMALE Founders 100 • They’ve inspired. They’ve led. They’ve blazed new trails. And they’ve fought like hell to come out of this past year better than they went into it.

Soldier. Founder. Revolutionary • With steel honed in the military, entrepreneur Phyllis Newhouse is giving financial power to those who’ve never had it.

Stacey Abrams Means Business • From a grassroots movement to a fintech revolution, she finds her biggest ideas in the wake of the ones that don’t work.

The Slayers of Slogans and Sparkles • These female founders built a cult following by banishing Lil Slugger to the bench
