1002: Power Talk Friday: Sara Kravet: VP Furniture at Kravet Inc.

Today With Sara Kravet:

Today on A Well-Designed Business, I’m thrilled to be joined by Sara Kravet, a 5th generation member of the renowned Kravet design family. Sara shares a unique perspective, having started in the Kravet showrooms before going on to work at First Dibs, and now serving as VP of Furniture.

We’ll hear about the ‘mandate’ for Kravet family members to work elsewhere before joining the family business, and how Sara’s diverse experiences have shaped her approach in her current role. Sarah offers an insider’s look at the legacy and evolution of the iconic Kravet brand. This is a can’t-miss conversation for any design enthusiast!
