The roast
Leslie posts 50 times a month to prove she’s a master of high-level enterprise sales, which explains why she’s currently getting the engagement rate of a LinkedIn poll asking if people prefer pens or pencils. She’s teaching teams how to earn the right to speak, yet she’s clearly spent fifteen years failing to convince anyone to listen.
