Welcome to Second and Command, brought to you by COO Alliance, where top-level COO-O-O-O-Sher insights,

where top-level COO-S share the insights, tactics, and strategies that made them the chief behind the chief.

And now here's your host, Cameron Herald.

Sean Cullen is the chief operating officer at A Webber, one of the world's leading email

marketing and automation software companies. Sean oversees the activities of all teams,

collaborates with the CEO on Strategic Vision and Planning, and advocates for

A-Webber's core values throughout all company initiatives. Sean joined A-Webber back in,

get this this 2001.

So I'm actually really excited to hear this journey,

the 17 year journey of like really the post first

come bubble, but he joined as a customer solutions manager

where his pragmatic solutions quickly distinguished him as a company leader.

Today he continues to grow A Weber through his passion for building a fanatical company culture,

developing people by challenging them to work outside of their comfort zone to

achieve the greatest potential and creating a remarkable experience for A-Webbers

a hundred thousand plus customers worldwide. Sean, super excited to hear from you, learn from you. I actually at one point was an A Weber client and I'm not even sure why we switched. I think I was probably like so early in my journey that I didn't even know what A Weber did and I'm not sure how we

switched off of it but I'm gonna have to revisit that again. I would say I now have a

goal for this podcast. There you go, convert me.

So tell me about your journey and like 17 years, I don't have to ask, you know, why you got

started with the company because you came in so early, but maybe tell us a little bit about the

journey and give us some of your, I guess the key lessons you've learned over the years.

This is going to be different from most of the people I've had on the show just because you've been there for so long.
