Ep 463: How Great Leaders Innovate with Evan Davidson

Sean: To continue off with your answers. So I love what you said about innovation. You mentioned the word innovation. And I wonder, with all the advancements in cybersecurity, again, we both agree that it is a hypercompetitive industry. Everyone must get into it. I want to get into it, to be honest. Right. How do you continue to innovate? Where do you get your ideas and how do you say, Oh, that's a good idea and that's not a good idea? How do you judge? Evan: Yeah, so. So I can only go on the business side of what I see from the products because there are some super smart people that develop these products and solutions, and I take my hat off to them because, you know, we're dealing with founders like Tomer Weingarten and the original founders of Sentinel One that had a vision ten years ago to build a product and solution that today is now starting to gain attraction. So you've got to have a. I think I think it's the mindset. How do you be a founder? So I certainly think very strong technical capability, very strong vision of the things that are impacting customers and then to stay the course to deliver those. And we've got very smart people constantly looking at the innovation, especially on the threat side, because unless your solution can solve some aspect of dealing with the cyber problem and that's fundamentally helping either prevent or detect or respond to some form of cyber threat, then it's really not going to get traction. So we've got really strong technical individuals, visionary people that are on that side. What I look at is really what's happening in the market today at the ground level. - - - Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/leadershipstack Join our community and ask questions here: from.sean.si/discord Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/leadershipstack Leadership Stack Merch: https://leadershipstack.com/shop/ - - - Evan Davidson LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/evdavidson/ Website: https://www.sentinelone.com/
