  • 2. Building Teams, Culture and People with Robert Alvarez

    In this episode of Sanity Check, we hear from the amazing Robert Alvarez, whose wins are too many to list. As the COO & CFO at BigCommerce, he helped transform the company from a small business to an industry leading SaaS ecommerce platform, so much so, that it was recently the most oversubscribed company on Nasdaq in the last 5 years. Prior to joining BigCommerce, Robert led four high-growth, venture-backed startups, which have all since been acquired or IPO’d. Robert was also recognised by the Austin Business Journal as CFO of the year. In this chat, Robert shares his playbook on building teams, culture and people and reminds us that no matter how big a company gets, it’s important not to lose its soul along the way.
