Listen "93. What Do S.P.O and D.E.I have in common?"
Episode Synopsis
We have another oldie but goodie for you this week! We are bringing back my interview with Sonja Kristiansen, Vice President of Global Platform Partnerships at TripleLift. TripleLift is a New York-based ad-tech company that primarily focuses on programmatic advertising. In this episode, Sonja and I discussed all things S.P.O.(Supply Path Optimization) and D.E.I (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion). Sonja shared how TripleLift can be seen as a partner from a buy and seller side's perspective. She also broke down some best practices for using S.P.O in your day-to-day, by sharing TripleLift's expertise on both the publisher's and buyer's views. Sonja discussed her take on Google's 3rd Party Deprecation announcement and how her team planned to work around it. We ended the conversation by discussing diversity, equity, and inclusion. Sonja specifically shared how she went about diversifying her team and how much of a positive impact it has had on TripleLift. Sonja is truly the epitome of living authentically, both professionally and personally.
