About Paula Henderson

What if you could use data and analytics to make a difference for your company, customers or even, the world? At SAS that’s what we help our customers do every day. Our customers inspire us, and in turn, we empower them to change what was impossible in to entirely possible. As Executive Vice President and Chief Sales Officer, Americas, I pour my heart into leading, guiding and serving dedicated teams across the Americas in industries such as government, financial services, health care, life sciences, consumer packaged goods, manufacturing, energy and telecommunications. Together, we are dedicated to helping customers apply the value of analytics to improve their companies, better serve their customers and tackle humanitarian issues around natural disasters, opioid abuse, suicide prevention, child welfare and much more. I’m passionate about the difference our solutions make in the lives of people across the globe – especially for at-risk youth and children. Outside of SAS, I serve on the Executive Roundtable boards for the North Carolina State Chamber as the Chair of Roadside Alliance. I am also on the boards of NC State University College of Science and Prevent Child Abuse North Carolina. I am dedicated to improving government programs aimed at assisting families and am a mentor for at-risk women at the Methodist Home for Children and for cadets at the National Guard Youth Challenge Program. I come to work every day because of the purpose I have found in my role, the people I work with daily and of the power of SAS in helping transform a world of data into a world of intelligence.
