THINX was in the midst of a crisis when Selby was put in charge - dealing with issues of sexual harassment. Selby created the company's first HR department, and put strict rules into place to oversee workplace culture. Selby also discusses the things companies need to do to attract top female talent. She says things like lactation rooms and family spaces are an important part of the company's pitch to new female hires.
