About

I am passionate about building meaningful companies from scratch. As a founder, I have been fortunate to have started two companies - Nutanix (the biggest tech IPO of 2016) and ThoughtSpot (private, valued $2B+). What excites me the most is working with people with a great mind and a great heart - smart, driven people that want to succeed with passion and character. I like to surround myself with such people and that often creates magic.

Inspiring employees to address current business challenges—transparently and collaboratively—enables the opportunity to find innovative solutions for business growth.  Tapping into the ideas of the people you work with each day is an effective way to foster the spirit of intrapreneurship on the job. It can move the company closer to its mission to spark innovation that has a positive influence, in-house and externally, in the marketplace.  An employee's concept may seem risky or unconventional, at first, but as a leader, being willing to facilitate a safe space for staff critical thinking and creative experimentation will help the business and its team stay fresh, collectively, moving forward with better outcomes for the organization and attainable solutions for its current and potential clients and customers.  Below, 14 experts from Fast Company Executive Board are sharing their best practices to inspire innovation and intellectual freedom that will excite your team.
