Welcome back to The Main Thing Podcast! I'm your host Skip Lineberg. My special guest today is someone I greatly admire. And someone with whom I've done business for several years. Lauren Dixon began her career as a news broadcaster and still considers herself a storyteller. Since founding Dixon Schwabl Advertising 30+ years ago, she has led by inspiration and example. Always accessible to clients, Lauren is a hands-on executive dedicated to fostering a great workplace culture that enables people to do their best. Under her leadership, DSA has grown into one of Upstate New York's largest ad agencies, landed on the Great Place to Work® list for 15 consecutive years as one of the 25 Best Workplaces and won national recognition from Fortune magazine as the nation's #1 place to work in advertising and marketing. Lauren comes to us today from Canandiagua, New York. Over the next 9 minutes you will discover why Lauren Dixon is one of the wisest people I know.
