Patreon Chief People Officer on the importance of fostering curiosity in global expansion journey

In this episode we are excited to welcome Tiffany Stevenson, Chief People Officer of Patreon, a membership platform that supports over 200,000 creators and their seven million fans, powering the creator economy.

Prior to her role in Patreon, Stevenson was the Chief Talent & Inclusion Officer at Box and held executive roles at Sephora and Charles Schwab. In our conversation, Stevenson talks about the differences between a company being “international” vs. being “global,” the importance of curiosity within the team to understand a local market and translate this knowledge back to localizing the business, how culture moves a company forward, how autonomy allows scale to happen and why Hubs could be the right structure for decision-making instead of a centralised HQ when you have a distributed workforce.
