Becca Millstein and Debbie Green Share Leadership and Hiring Insights

Becca Millstein, the 32‑year‑old co‑founder and CEO of Fishwife, a trendy tinned seafood brand, told Business Insider that her favorite interview question for candidates is “What’s your superpower?” She says the question cuts to the core of a candidate’s unique strength and self‑awareness, traits she views as essential for startup success. Millstein also reflected on her own superpower, describing it as the ability to blend analytical and creative thinking, allowing her to operate both at high‑strategy level and deep in the operational weeds.

Debbie Green, a wellness and leadership coach and founder of Wishfish Coaching & Development, discussed her two‑decade journey helping individuals and organisations across the UK and internationally. She emphasizes that people already hold the answers they need and that coaching should unlock that inherent wisdom. Green’s approach combines evidence‑based tools with human connection, aiming to boost confidence, reduce imposter syndrome, and foster purposeful leadership.

Both leaders highlight the importance of self‑awareness, authenticity, and tailored development in building high‑performing teams and businesses.
