Leadership under pressure: How Savneet Singh saved and scaled PAR


Listen Later

This episode comes to you live from SaaStock USA. Fresh off the Founderpath Center Stage, Savneet Singh joined Alex Theuma to discuss how he took PAR from having just weeks of cash left to the billion dollar public company it is today.
Tune in to hear Savneet’s candid take on what it really takes to lead under pressure and scale with purpose, including:
- Stepping into the CEO role with only a few weeks of runway.
- The urgent actions taken to avoid bankruptcy—including a ~20% workforce cut in 10 days.
- Why transparency and accountability set the foundation for PAR’s cultural turnaround.
- The shift from “feel-good” values to bold principles like Speed, Ownership, and Winning.
- How AI is being operationalised at PAR—with a sharp focus on efficiency and product experience.
- The real sacrifices of being a SaaS CEO and why you need to be “all in” if you want to be the best.
