Leadership is an immense responsibility that should never be taken lightly. Even the most competent leaders can occasionally be perceived as intemperate. In this episode, our host, John Laurito, explores the leadership mistakes that ultimately led to Chris Licht's dismissal as CEO. While some individuals may have a natural inclination towards successful leadership, others must diligently work at it. It's important to note that effective leadership is not solely reliant on having an extroverted personality that commands attention through words. Rather, it revolves around an individual's capacity to foster collaboration, empowerment, encouragement, and accountability within a team, enabling them to collectively achieve goals. Throughout history, truly remarkable leaders have endured a transformative journey, learning from numerous mistakes along the way before attaining their ultimate success.

#309 - Bloom Where You Are Planted with Jim Simpson
Tomorrow's Leader
08/29/22 • 32 min
In this episode, host John Laurito talks with the CEO of Blumira, Jim Simpson, all about success and taking advantage of the opportunities they have in their life. Jim shares how he stepped outside his comfort zone, figuring out who he was and what shaped him to become the leader he is today.
Jim Simpson joined Blumira in January as vice president of products. Over the past year, Simpson was responsible for guiding the company’s strategic product roadmap to deliver the fastest time to security, with a focus on accessible, easy-to-use detection and response technology. With over two decades of experience growing successful security startups, Simpson previously led product management for the access security provider Duo Security, acquired by Cisco in 2018 for $2.35 billion. Before joining Duo, he led engineering and UX at the network security company Arbor Networks, acquired by NETSCOUT in 2015.
Simpson’s user-centric approach to solving customer problems is unique in an industry long known for overly complex, legacy solutions that often fail to protect organizations.
Jim likes to look for the mystery in the world, and that comes in many forms: traveling, both locally on a bicycle and by planes, trains, and automobiles; creating, appreciating, and supporting art; and finally, sharing what he’s learned via mentorship and coaching.
