Reflecting on Connection at SaaStr 2022

We live in a society that has recently changed, forcing people, businesses, and communities to adapt.

Growth is never easy. We only grow when we face a bit of pain.

But we become better when we grow. And we don't have to go it alone.

Partnerships can help.

When we partner, everyone wins.

I spoke about the advantages of partnerships with so many bright individuals at SaaStr 2022. It warms my heart to hear about the success of others, especially success through partnerships.

Partnering makes 1 + 1 = 3. I don't quite know how. But partnering is more than addition. Somehow it has a multiplying effect.

The value exchanged through partnerships activates the human spirit. It taps into our primal nature.

Immersing myself in the SaaS ecosystem inspired me. I want to help bring about a world where we all succeed in business together.

That is the experience that events like SaaStr create. The feeling was palpable. I want to chase that feeling. It makes me feel alive.

There is NO better feeling than connecting with others.

I can't wait to attend SaaStr 2023.
