But which management practices and cultural qualities will truly engage, motivate, and – ultimately – retain your best sales talent?

Upstream Group CEO Doug Weaver talks to hundreds of sellers every year, and in this provocative presentation he shares some surprising steps that every CEO and CRO can take to truly connect with, and keep, top sellers.
Each year, the ad buying community recognizes the individuals, teams and organizations that have demonstrated the highest levels of customer service, knowledge, and innovation in internet advertising sales. Be there to celebrate your friends and colleagues for being the best at what they do.

Troy Young was named president of Hearst Magazines Digital Media in May 2013. Since then, he has built a continuously growing division that creates and manages the content, technology, operations, product and business development strategies for 21 digital brands in the U.S. with an audience of 180 million unique visitors and 640 million video views. The portfolio includes Cosmopolitan, ELLE, Good Housekeeping, Harper’s Bazaar and Delish as well as Sweet, a collaboration with Snapchat on its Discover platform, and a partnership with LENNY, a newsletter from GIRLS co-creators Lena Dunham and Jenni Konner. Young also oversees the Magazine division’s international digital business, with a combined audience of 236 million unique visitors across 36 regions.
In 2015, Young was named Adweek’s Magazine Executive of the Year, an honor that recognized him for unifying Hearst’s “print and digital brands into a single, well-oiled machine whose traffic has surged” leading to a 75 percent increase in revenue, and for his development of MediaOS, “a combined CMS, ad sales and data strategy tool for all Hearst properties.” In 2014, Young was inducted to MIN’s Digital Hall of Fame, and in 2013 he was named to the FOLIO 100, a list of the most influential and impactful media professionals of the year. Young was also one of MIN’s Most Intriguing People the same year.
A media executive and entrepreneur with 20 years of experience in digital publishing and advertising, Young was previously president of Say Media. Prior to Say, Young held several executive positions at Omnicom’s digital agency Organic, including the role of chief experience officer, where he advised on strategy and created award-winning work for clients including American Express, Virgin Mobile, Sirius XM, Chrysler and Bank of America. He has held numerous advisory roles with digital media, mobile and commerce companies and currently serves on the boards of the Interactive Advertising Bureau (IAB) and Digital Content Next (DCN).
