I'd say transformation is messy, no matter how you want to frame it.

And transformation has to be owned by the CEO.

I don't know that there is an exception to that.

So when you go back and you ask about transformation here, I've been with Rik for four and a half years, and I'll have been CEO for three years tomorrow.

I would say I have led multiple transformations here.

I led a transformation when I came in the door with the founder.

I didn't come in as CEO, but I led a transformation with the founder right when I came in the door to reestablish Reich.

It was a standalone business.

I led a transformation when I took over the CEO spot from our founder three years ago.

And I'm in the middle of leading a transformation right now as we adopt into a new era.

And I think there are a few attributes that I always look to on this.

And one is personal accountability.

So I was making the point about the CEO has to lead it.

And I've always tried to lead this business with that accountability in mind that you have to make the call and you often have to make the call alone.

But you still owe a lot of answers on why and how you made it.

Because you need people to have confidence in the thought process and the willingness to follow you.

My comment on hands-on plays into that as well.

I am not the technical founder of Wrike, but that is not an excuse of where I should be spending my time.

It's just a fact.

And that means that I need to demonstrate the use of technology and how it is advancing, because that is a way for me to help lead the company through this change.
