Behind the Scenes with Micky Onvural
Bonobos' Micky Onvural talks positivity, her definition of a CEO and being intelligently naive.
I've had the opportunity to connect with and learn from executives of major brands at MediaPost's Insider Summits. In the process I've discovered some truly impressive women, and not only for the work they do but their stories behind the scenes. With Brand Insider: BTS, I get to pull back the curtain on some of the most influential women marketers as they talk about their path to success: the twists and turns, obstacles, inspirations and the valuable lessons learned along the way.
“I was told by someone I was working with that I had to leave a little bit of Micky at the door.” That bit was her emotions, something Bonobos’ CEO, Micky Onvural, eventually realized was truly bad advice and credits bringing her “full self” to work as a driving force for her success. In this episode of Brand Insider: BTS, Micky talks with me about why we should embrace our warts, recommends disrupting yourself before someone else does, and even admits to a dual personality at work…we considered calling her Maria.
