With an impressive 30-year career, as you can imagine, we packed a lot in today’s podcast! 

With experience working for companies such as Cybereason, Splunk and Leapwork, he has supported some of the worlds leading vendors scale towards success, and has hired, developed and led some of the best sales reps in the software industry.
