Frank Slootman doesn’t start companies; he builds them. No CEO has a better track record for turning the ideas of others into jackpots. On this episode of The Knowledge Project, Slootman dives deep into the no-nonsense, results-based strategies that have made him a leading executive, including how to approach the first 90 days after taking over a company, doing less and doing better, the difference between a good sales organization and a great one, how to get the best out of people, positioning yourself for future success, and more.
Slootman is the Chairman and CEO at Snowflake, a cloud computing–based data company. Prior to taking over at Snowflake in April 2019, Slootman served as the Chairman and CEO of cloud computing company ServiceNow. He has also spent six years as the President and CEO of Data Domain Inc., a venture-backed storage company.
