How culture scales with growth

Описание: In this interview, Ray Martinelli, Chief People Officer at Coupa Software, shares his expert perspective on driving growth within a high-speed Silicon Valley scale-up. With over 25 years in the industry, Ray discusses the evolution of HR from a support function to a critical business partner that sits at the very heart of organisational success.

Key Themes Explored:

The Evolution of Culture: Why you shouldn't try to keep your culture exactly as it is, but instead encourage it to evolve as you scale internationally.

Values as a Foundation: A deep dive into Coupa’s three core values: Customer Success, Focus on Results, and Strive for Excellence.

Hiring for Additive Talent: Why hiring for "cultural fit" is less important than finding individuals who are "additive" and can help the environment grow.

Creativity vs. Process: How to foster an entrepreneurial mindset by creating a safe environment where employees are encouraged to think "out of the box" and learn from mistakes.

Work-Life Integration: Moving away from the "eight-to-five" clock-in mentality towards a model based on accountability and outcomes.

Ray's insights provide a masterclass for HR leaders on how to balance core value systems with the agility required for rapid global expansion.
