“Focus less on the finish line, more on the journey,“ says Mark Casey, founder & CEO of one of the fastest growing tech firms in North America. It was a hard-earned lesson for a leader specializing in award-winning solutions for global, mission-critical applications.
Amid great success, Mark fell prey to the illusion when things go well, company culture takes care of itself. Amid hardship, Mark realized — Apcela’s was gravely lacking. “It’s less about the ideas and more about the execution of the ideas,” Mark found, evolving from a team of “mercenaries,” to one firmly grounded in culture.
Mark’s team expectations:
- Drive to win.
- Embrace change.
- Have fun.
- Lead by example.
- Uphold commitments.
