How to Grow from Founder to CEO, with Brian Halligan of Hubspot

In 2006, Brian Halligan and Dharmesh Shah teamed up in Boston to launch Hubspot. Since then, Hubspot has become the leading B2B software for inbound marketing and sales. The company went public in 2014 and continues to grow rapidly, with approx. 70,000 customers today. Along the way, Brian has co-authored two books, is a lecturer at MIT Sloan, and has been named a Top-Rated CEO by Glassdoor four times. Brian shares how he made the switch from delighting prospects to delighting customers, why he believes in being a product-focused org, and why he personally receives a 30+ page 360 degree review to optimize his performance as CEO.
