As CEO of Snyk, I have the pleasure of leading a worldwide organization that is disrupting the security industry. I love what I do. This may not be something you often hear a CEO say, but it captures my feelings. I get to work with great people all around the world who bring their own skills and passion to their roles. I've been able to learn from them, work with them, and share in our mutual success. There are three basic principles I follow as a leader: 1. Lead by example. It is important for me to know that others can look to me with confidence that I will do my best across all endeavors. I expect others in my organization to lead by example as well. “Do as I say not as I do” does not cut it.2. Always be learning and pushing myself. I try never to become complacent or too comfortable. I challenge all our employees to continually learn and seek to improve. 3. Take risks and push beyond your comfort levels. If you find yourself too comfortable in your role, and there is no longer any challenge, it’s time to move on. Raise your hand and ask for something new. I like to lead people who are hungry, humble, and smart. Hungry because they are always striving to be better Humble because they know they can’t do it alone and can work with a team Smart because I want to work with people who can teach me to be betterThe world is transforming around us in every way. It is hard to predict what will happen and we often can’t control where the changes will come from. But what we can control and what we can predict is how we are going to respond. It is an exciting time for organizations of all sizes as change brings opportunity. I’m honored that I have the chance to lead Snyk and have an impact on the lives of customers, partners, and employees.If you would like to contact me, find me on Twitter at @PeterCMcKay
