Conversations with Partner Leaders hosted by Pat Kirkland

Part 1, Conversations with Partner Leaders, David Glick

David Glick is my guest on this episode of Conversations with Partner Leaders.  I met Dave during his almost 20 years at Amazon, where as VP, he lead the Fulfillment Technologies Teams. He followed that by serving for almost 4 years as CTO at Flexe. He was recently named the SVP of Operational Excellence for Walmart’s Global Tech Team.  Bottom Line: Dave is an extraordinary Partner Leader. My team and I found this conversation with our long-time friend of the firm particularly inspiring. It’s posted in 3 parts. In Part 1, Dave and I talk about how he spots talent and leverages it, particularly for underrepresented groups, and the leadership guidelines he lives by. Part 2 is about giving and receiving constructive feedback so you can, as he says, get to the starting line. In Part 3, we talk about ways a sponsor can help shift others’ perception of a person from the subjective to the objective, we answer the question “How do I find a mentor ?”  And… Dave talks about the man who inspired him the most.
