Since leaving my role as Informatica’s EVP of Worldwide Field Operations in May, I researched, met and interviewed with over 100 companies while considering my next move. I spent more than 11 years at Informatica and I had strict criteria when evaluating each new opportunity: I was looking for an industry-leading company in a fast-growing market; a focused, passionate team; and a place where I could continue to develop as a leader. Informatica was that opportunity for me over a decade ago, and I am very proud of the work we did there. With audacious goals, lofty aspirations and a forward-thinking mentality, my team helped the company reach new revenue milestones. We were extremely innovative too — we used tools like Okta to securely connect our people to technology. In Field Operations alone we owned and ran 140 apps, and Okta enabled us to access those essential apps, which made.
