Senior Manager of Customer and Community Engagement, Workato

Many businesses struggle with lack of team integration. There are a plethora of handy apps available, and various teams within businesses often use different processes, tools, and software. This has led to many businesses attempting to patch together technologies and create ad-hoc solutions that fail when they need to be scaled. Workato allows businesses to integrate data and apps so that teams can collaborate and communicate securely.

• Prioritize customers: We exist for our customers and because of them. That’s why we are passionate about delivering an amazing product, excellent service, and an unforgettable experience.
• Win together: We strive to hire people who understand team wins come above their own. We respect and trust our colleagues — believing that the greatest success comes not from one person, but from all of our strengths combined.
• Act now: The best time to do anything worth doing is now. Create a minimal viable solution fast and iterate quickly. We encourage failing fast so we can succeed faster.
• Think ahead: We skip the easy shortcuts for mediocre and temporary solves. It’s important to always take the hard road now if it will lead to a better long term solution.
• Better each other: You cannot get 1% better every day unless people are honest with you and you openly invite that coaching and guidance. Provide feedback in private. Encourage and support in public.
• Go offbeat: We use novel thinking to create novel solutions. We do not use others’ thinking as a template. We mix existing wisdom with unusual thinking to generate new and better solutions.
• Have fun: We take care of ourselves, and give everyone the space they need to feel healthy, happy, and well-rested. Because it’s only when we’re having a good time that we’re able to ensure our customers are, too.
