What does it take to help build a $20B company, exit with significant wealth, and then start over again at one of the most competitive firms in Palo Alto?

In this conversation, I’m joined by Neboyša Omčikus, a former engineer, turned Head of Talent, turned Product Lead at Rubrik, where he helped scale the business from 15 to over 200 people, culminating in one of Silicon Valley’s most successful IPOs.

His next chapter? Head of Strategy at Glean, one of the fastest-growing AI startups on the planet (currently valued at $7.2B).

We explore:

• How to identify real talent in a world of noise
• The problem with hiring “brilliant jerks”
• Navigating imposter syndrome in high-growth environments
• The mindset required to leap from recruiting to product to strategy
• Why true closers start selling from the first conversation
• What makes a career-defining team and how to build one

If you're looking for:

• A playbook on how to make yourself indispensable, and thus earn shareholder status as a startup
• A guide on best practices for hiring and selecting people for your inner circle
• The right mindset for repeatable success

This one is for you.
