About Travis Ferber
I believe that creating a great company comes from hiring incredible people and giving them the space and support to do amazing things. At Fivetran, we\'re looking to make access to data as simple and reliable as electricity. This is an amazing mission and I\'m excited to help achieve that goal. As VP of Strategy & Operations at Fivetran, I build teams of humble, courageous people who are excited to make a difference. We work hard to make Fivetran better - be it improving our operations, making an acquisition, or running a great planning process. Every day is different and I am constantly learning. I love the work I do and the people I get to work with. Over my career, I\'ve learned several lessons- Move fast to make directionally correct decisions- Mistakes are the best because I learn so much from them- Assume good intent - Share ideas early and iterate with others - Feedback is a gift; accept it as such - Have strong opinions, loosely held- Nothing replaces hard work- Grit is the most important character trait- Vulnerability is a super power- Ability to execute is more important than the perfect strategy- Be grateful, always
