The latest episode is live, and this one is fantastic. I sat down with Eric Gilpin, President, GTM of G2, a leader who’s spent over two decades scaling teams, navigating change, and driving growth in some of the most competitive technology markets in the world. What makes Eric stand out is how he thinks about people, performance, and presence. In this conversation we went beyond tactics and hit on: Being strong at work without losing your presence at home Work demands a lot. But the cost of absence, in relationships, in moments, in memory, isn’t on any spreadsheet. Why alignment with your spouse matters more than “balance” It’s not a 50/50 scorecard, it’s shared intention and honesty about what really matters. What “being present” requires, not just physically there, but mentally and emotionally engaged, even when everything else claws for your attention. The real talk on AI Will AI replace us? Maybe parts of what we do. But the parts of leadership no model can replicate are exactly what matter most going forward. Listening to understand, not to respond That might be the most underrated leadership skill in the age of speed. This episode is about the humanity beneath the headlines and what leaders need to actually thrive in the chaos of work, tech, and life. If you’re thinking about the future of work, AI, or how to show up better in the places that matter most, give this one a listen. 🎧 Youtube: https://lnkd.in/e4nrDEAu

I couldn't agree with this more. A true CRO (not a Head of Sales) understands the entire customer journey from end-to-end. Paired with a strong VP of Engineering or CTO - this should be the aspired dream team for most companies.

The missing key to explosive growth: true leadership alignment. 🔑 On the GTM Made Simple Podcast with host Sangram Vajre, ZoomInfo founder and CEO Henry Schuck revealed why Go-to-Market excellence depends on a rock-solid leadership trifecta. Without tight alignment between the CPO, CRO, and CMO, product teams risk building what sales can’t sell — and marketing messages fall flat. 🔗 Link below for the full episode.
