Jakii Chu

CMO, Instacart

What's your favorite interview question?
‍When testing for culture fit, I like to ask "if you asked your closest friends and family how to describe you, what would they say?"
‍
What's one tool your team can't live without?
‍When I joined Instacart, the Marketing team was a formidable seven. Now, we're 60+ strong and are still hiring!
‍
What's one book every leader should read?
‍If you haven't read 'Radical Candor' by Kim Scott, it's an incredible read and has changed how I view giving (and receiving) feedback.

What members are saying...

The Guilds are invaluable - I’ve really enjoyed connecting with experienced leaders for intimate conversations on topics that matter.
— Hayden Brown, CEO of Upwork (NASDAQ:UPWK)
As leaders, we're bombarded with invites to countless leadership groups—this one is actually worth it. Every time we meet, I walk away with an insight I can use to impact my team and our results.
— Cammie Dunaway, CMO at Duolingo
This is a truly great network of leaders at your fingertips that I couldn't even begin to scale on my own.
— Theresa Schaefer, SVP Product & Design at Olo
The Guilds have been a fantastic resource both for targeted questions as well as broader conversation that has helped me be a more informed Executive.  
— Deepa Koita, CFO at Sakara Life
Thanks for setting up these great conversations. Can I invite more folks from my leadership team? They would find this extremely informative.
