Amp It Up

Leading for Hypergrowth by Raising Expectations, Increasing Urgency, and Elevating Intensity

De: Frank Slootman

Narrado por: Daniel Henning, Frank Slootman

Snowflake CEO Frank Slootman is one of the tech world's most accomplished executives in enterprise growth, having led Snowflake to the largest software IPO ever after leading Data Domain and ServiceNow to exponential growth and the public market before that. In Amp It Up, he shares his leadership approach for the first time.

Amp It Up delivers an authoritative look at what it takes to transform an organization for maximum growth and scale. Slootman shows that most leaders have significant room to improve their organization's performance without making expensive changes to their talent, structure, or fundamental business model - and they don't need to bring in an army of consultants to do it. What they do need is to align people around what matters and execute with urgency and intensity every day.

Leading for unprecedented growth means declaring war on mediocrity, breaking the status quo, and making conflicted choices daily, all with a relentless focus on the mission. Amp It Up provides the first principles to guide that change, and the tactical advice for organizing a company around them. Perfect for executives, entrepreneurs, founders, managers, and leaders of all kinds, Amp It Up is a must-have resource for anyone who seeks to unleash the growth potential of a company and scale it to heights they never thought possible.

Narrator is annoying

I really enjoyed the book, but found the narrators style to be very obnoxious unfortunately.

Operator's perspectives

Great insight and perspectives from an Operator and Leader Frank Slootman. I always admire listening to protagonist of a technology business. looking forward for more leader written books

Actually useful

A short but valuable listen. Most books on the topic regurgitate the same talking points but I found myself pausing to reflect quite often.

will come back to it as I keep building my startup

This is a great book. I will come back to it as I keep building my startup.

Every executive should digest this book.

This book is excellent, and every leadership team will benefit from the wisdom offered within. I’ll be re-reading this carefully.
