You’re destined to fail if you don’t do this 1 thing when building international teams

In this episode, we are excited to welcome Sébastien Marotte, the President of Box Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (EMEA). Box is a Cloud Content Management company that empowers more than 87,000 businesses globally by revolutionising how they work.

In Marotte’s 30+ year career, he has held executive roles at high-profile software companies such as Google, Hyperion, and Oracle. He led Google Cloud’s EMEA Channels as Vice President, having also served as Vice President of Google Cloud EMEA for almost a decade. As an early leader at Google Cloud, Marotte was responsible for much of the foundational growth and development across EMEA, including the launch of G Suite (now Google Workspace).

In our conversation, Marotte talks about the importance of diversity in building international teams, strategies in balancing corporate strategy and localisation, why customer engagement is everything in business, how digitalisation changed the way we innovate, work, and hire and why there are more opportunities for global businesses now more than ever.
