In this episode of the SaaS Revolution Show our host Alex Theuma is joined by Steve Oriola, CEO at Unbounce, who shares the leadership lessons he's learnt from navigating a SaaS M&A and the transformation AI has had on business.
"We also survey base of employees and those values are landing pretty well. That's an important part of it, is that people understand how everyone works and how everyone should be working and how we should be making decisions. And we correct ourselves all the time on that."
Steve shares:
• How he's steering the marketing tech ship through choppy waters - from perfecting landing pages to building an AI-powered platform that actually tells you which customers are worth chasing
• The behind-the-scenes of marrying two companies' cultures; complete with leadership team matchmaking and values that actually stuck
• Why he's betting big on AI being more than just a buzzword
• The secret sauce to staying sane as a CEO, including cold plunges, fitness regimes, and the art of not bringing work drama home (even when your spouse is in the industry)
• How he's tackling his biggest CEO headache with everything from Berlin Q&As to leadership pow-wows
