Leading Between the Lines

Doing things differently


Listen Later

It’s time for another episode of the Leading Between the Lines podcast. This week we’re speaking to Brij Palicha, the Director of Learning & Development at Snyk. Snyk is an innovative tech business that was founded in 2015 by Guy Podjarny and has over 800 employees operating globally. They provide a developer-first cloud-native security tool that covers multiple areas of application security. Snyk’s value tripled in 2021, and the company was recently valued at 8 million dollars.


Brij has worked at Snyk for two years. He has previous experience with larger public and private sector companies and has also worked in management consulting. In this episode he discusses the differences between working for a large corporate firm and a fast-growth startup business. He emphasises how important it is for fast-growth companies to employ people who have a hunger for change and are driven by doing things differently.

As well as discussing how Snyk has coped during the pandemic, Brij also talks in-depth about learning and development within business both from a face-to-face and remote perspective. He also outlines how he believes learning and development should be approached and what it should aim to achieve for employees.

On a personal level, Brij explains how working at different companies in a range of countries, whilst being surrounded by lots of smart people, has set him up well in his career. He ends by saying that he would be really proud if he could look back on his life and see that he had had a positive impact on someone's life.
