David Hammond Email & Phone Number

David Hammond is a Growth Leader at Upland Software. Colleagues describe him as "David is the model of integrity that others should strive to be. If there is but one enduring measure of a man, let it be the way they treat those that can do nothing for them. David is passionate about people, and as a result the people around him deliver results. Whether in a direct or indirect manner, it’s an amazing dichotomy that is too often absent from sales and business. David focuses on the health and well-being and the satisfaction that those around him derive from doing the job. It’s simply incredible, David’s uncanny ability to build loyal and trusting teams even in the most challenging situations. He is a walking case study in servant leadership and has developed a (literal) team of exceptional and emerging leaders because of it.", "I've had the pleasure of reporting directly to David as he leads the global sales team for Infor Talent Science. He is an incredible speaker, motivator, and mentor and I've learned so much from his servant leadership style over the past 3 years that we've worked together. David is a hands-on leader who cares about the one-to-one relationships with his people and clients just as much as he cares about the strategic vision he's setting for the organization. He brings a broad range of executive leadership experience to the table, remains calm, cool and collected in times of uncertainty, and is not afraid to ask the tough questions when they need asking. If you have the opportunity to work with David, take it. It will be one of the best decisions you ever make on behalf of your team and business.", and "I've worked with thousands of executives during my decades as a consultant. In my experience, the performance of a company can be traced back to failures or successes in leadership. And while everyone may not agree with me, I believe there is a secret formula to being a good leader - run the business like it's personal, not like it's a business. Businesses make decisions because "it's just business." People make decisions because "it's personal." David manages every aspect of his company like it's personal. He's demonstrated integrity, well-defined values and passion in every business dealing I've ever conducted with him (or witnessed as an objective observer). He cares about people and he cares about winning. And I've seen him win (big time) by focusing on people first and creating a community of people who don't consider themselves "workers" but who consider themselves citizens of a community that is out to change the world. David is rare. Companies succeed or fail based on their ability or inability to find people like David. He's makes everyone around him want to be a better person. I recommend him unconditionally and without reservation. If he were running for office I would vote for him. If he were starting a company, I would invest. If he were building a barn, I'd pick up a hammer. He's that kind of guy. You'll know when you meet him."
