Raising the Bar with Rachel Dickens

No Surprises

The communications expert talks building a team, finding balance, and the beauty of editing.

You know that feeling of listening in on a conversation between friends? (We know you do.) Sit back and savor your fly-on-the-wall status in this edition of No Surprises, as Mallory and Kelsey sit down with one of their BFFs, Rachel Dickens.

But this bestie also comes with some serious business chops. As the Senior Director of Corporate Affairs and Communications for Molson Coors, she handles everything from strategy to speechwriting. The trio digs into the importance of editing, pleasure versus success — can you have both? — and what makes for the silent death of a project.

Of course, because it’s a conversation between friends, there are plenty of laughs, a few memories, and a fair amount of gassing each other up. That’s what friends do!

Fair warning: you’ll likely be looking at tickets to Iceland — namely the Blue Lagoon — by the end of the episode. (Just don’t put your head under the water.)
