Subscribe to our newsletter www.ceo-review.com CEO MONTHLY / ISSUE 10 2022 9 Making It Easier To Be Green Food waste is one of the major challenges faced by many businesses, and finding ways of processing that waste in an environmentally friendly way is often difficult. The team behind Green Eco Technologies, under the stalwart leadership of Rick Woods, have gone a long way to providing much-needed solutions. Recognised in CEO Monthly as CEO of the Year, 2022 - Melbourne, Australia, we caught up with Rick to uncover more of the secrets of his success. The need to make a dent in our combined carbon footprint has been the driving force behind many industries over the last few years. Often, however, these companies have not been able to achieve the results they’ve wanted without increase costs or changing back of house processes considerably. That’s where Green Eco Technologies comes in, offering patented technology for the onsite processing of food waste. The team’s services have been invaluable to businesses in the hospitality, medical, education, and shopping centre sectors, reducing a customer’s carbon footprint by up to 84%, and their food waste disposal costs by up to 30%. No two businesses are the same, so the team take the time to really understand the various processes involved and where food waste comes from. The solutions offered comes in two parts, firstly focusing on how to reduce food waste generally, then on how to save money dealing with what is left. At the heart of this innovative business is Rick Woods, an Engineer by profession who has a background in big firms such as Shell Oil, Amcor and Energy Australia. Acting as CEO of Green Eco Technologies has allowed him to stretch his abilities in new areas. “Over the years I have been privileged to have worked for a variety of leaders,” he tells us. “While all have had different levels of alignment with my own moral compass, I have learnt a lot from all of them. The most important thing I have learnt is that people respond to balanced feedback. Congratulate their successes, but don’t avoid discussing the failings either.” This focus on how to lead has been a major part of Rick’s success. He had made a point of empowering all of his employees to thrive. “For me personally, I have always got most reward from building teams into high performers,” he says. “As the most senior leader in the business, one does not need to have all the answers,” he explains. “By seeking out and listening to staff at all levels, the business grows faster and is more able to respond quickly to the many headwinds and the opportunities businesses face today.” This focus on the team was key to surviving the COVID-19 pandemic. “The strong pipeline of customers that we had seeking our services dried up over night as they were, rightly, focused on staying alive themselves,” Rick tells us. “The challenge was not to panic, but to take a deep breath and deal with what was in front of us.” The situation did unfortunately lead to some staff layoffs, but Green Eco Technologies weathered the storm and is now a stronger business as a result. “We have a broader customer base, a more refined technology and an even hungrier workforce,” Rick says with a grin. Looking ahead, the future seems bright for the Green Eco Technologies team. “We are introducing new models of the WasteMaster to satisfy varying sized businesses with different applications,” Rick explains, “and we are expanding globally into markets that are focused on greenhouse gas and cost reductions. We are also working with research organisations to develop higher order applications for the WasteMaster residue which will make an even larger environmental contribution in the future.” As the green revolution continues apace, the need for new technologies has become clear. Finding these new technologies will not just depend on the skills of innovators in the industry, but on the teams who bring those innovations to life. The success of Rick Woods is not just in his engineering prowess, but in the passion he inspires in all of his team members. We cannot wait to see what he does next!

Social Media Spotlight CEO MONTHLY / ISSUE 7 2022 15 With its founder Phyllis Elin Ph.D earning accreditation as the ‘Most Influential CEO’ in 2022 for New York, her company – Knowledge Preservation – has been making waves throughout North America with its incredibly well designed and thorough data protection strategies. Implementing infrastructure that promises to take its clients’ organizations to the next level and future-proof their gathered information in a holistic sense, it specialises in the protection, restructuring, and empowerment of data assets. As one of the most trusted data protecting companies in New York, Knowledge Preservation has cut its teeth on the defence, structuring, and empowerment of it’s clients’ data assets. For this company, the truth of its ambition lies in its name – Knowledge Protection – as this describes the structural work it does to rebuild its customers’ organizational memory into something that will preserve their company’s information and safeguard it well. Founded by exemplary mind in her industry and pioneer of governmental information management, Phyllis Elin Ph.D, she has turned this company into a front-runner of industry and leader of information governance and consultancy practice. Its team, experts in synthesised information, use deep information governance and technological skills to create holistic, cost-effective, and best-practice information restructure in their work. Thus, it has been able to protect and empower their core data assets since its beginning. Making a name for itself in this manner was never a struggle for Knowledge Protection, as in everything it has made its professionalism and diligence known, serving one client at a time with truly incredibly levels of customer service that keep them at the very heart of its concerns. Helping clients to create, deploy, and maintain its strategies, Elin herself is a CCPA, GDPR, data privacy, data security, and governance expert, working in the New York City Metropolitan Area and serving her clients with an exemplary level of pride that each of them appreciate. After all, she sees her duty towards her clients as a duty of care, one that will better the corporate world in the macro scale. Her information governance work has been developed thusly over the past 30 years, allowing her to build an in-depth and highly impressive portfolio of past clients, each of whom have benefitted from the enterprise-wide information consultancy she has delivered to clients from financial enterprises to pharmaceutical companies. She has also served customers in healthcare, the legal sector, higher education, and the public sector. Its services include the development, deployment, and maintenance of data defensible governance systems, each of which have made a name for itself in the market for the excellence that unite them. Fundamentally, although each of its services are highly tailored to fit the client, their needs, and their specifications, they all share this as a common trait, as well as sharing the outstanding level of customer service that goes into their implementation and implementation; its staff take great pride in making sure each customer feels taken care of throughout the entire process. When it comes to needs assessment and gap analysis, it uses an in-depth and industry leading understanding of data assets to conduct itself and re-organise a client’s informational structure. Firstly, its work with a client begins by identifying client priorities right from the word ‘go’, teasing out the individual needs, specifications, and priorities that they find the most important in order to ensure it can do its best work. Knowledge Protection then uses this information to assess, evaluate, and isolate any high risk and high value data compliance and litigation risks, presenting these to the client in a manner that is holistic and unladen by jargon in order to give them a comprehensive idea of what it is they’re dealing with and what the implications are. After all, above all else, it is aware of what a minefield its industry can be to the uninitiated – and even for those who are more intimately familiar with it. Knowledge Protection gives its clients the opportunity to shuffle any stress caused by this enigmatic and complication consideration, instituting remediation plans that address gaps and weaknesses in a manner than leaves no stone unturned and no factor unconsidered. After all, the benefit of gaining the help of a foremost expert such as Elin and her team means that a client can rest assured that this will happen in a reliable fashion; between her own expertise and the knowledge of her team, her experience means that she is adept at seeing all variables at play and act accordingly. Developing reporting, communication, and accountability structures with this in mind is a sure-fire way to increase their dependability. This, effectively, future-proof’s a clients’ businesses by co-ordinating gap remediation planning, analysis, and reporting, each of which can happen quickly, efficiently, and without draining a client’s own internal resources, which will usually always be of better use elsewhere. Due to this, clients can focus on what matters to them – the ambitions of their business – and leave information protection in the capable hands of Knowledge Protection and its team, resting assured that they have made the right choice. Indeed, Knowledge Protection has aided many clients in this way, and does not wish for any new clients to simply have to take its word for it. Elin and her team are staunchly dedicated to the collection of and action regarding client feedback, and Knowledge Protection is always anxious to keep improving and developing accordingly, with a proactive approach to feedback that has seen clients depend on it time after time. With the exemplary retention schedule implementation it handles, the politics, procedures, and training it delivers, and the customer service that exists behind every service it offers, Knowledge Protection and Phyllis Elin herself are looking forward to a continually improving future for itself, its clients, and the wider world. Company: Knowledge Preservation Contact: Phyllis Elin Web: www.knowledgepreservation.com Apr22061 In Defence of Data CEO MONTHLY / C-suite Awards 2022 8 CEO MONTHLY / C-suite Awards 2022 9 needs of different learners. Today, he applies this same sensitivity to drawing out the different needs of different clients, always keeping an open mind to the changing wants and needs of his market segment in order to deliver the services and solutions that will help them thrive in a world that is constantly in flux. Strong leaders, according to Saheb, must always be willing to take calculated risks. Both elements are incredibly important to making business decisions that will take a company into the future, as it is this attitude that secured him recognition as one of the movers and shakers on Forbes’ 30 under 30 list a few years ago. Having learned that he truly enjoys partnering with the best managerial teams and applying his passion for strong working cultures, continued mentorship, and business operations, Saheb can’t wait to see where he and the leadership team can take Cart.com and its clients in the future. After all, if a client can expect anything from this Company, they can expect to encounter people who have learned well from Saheb and other fellow leaders in terms of their commitment to the future. Moreover, onlookers can trust that Saheb is a proven professional who has handled the Strategy & Operations for Cart.com to great effect, benefitting each stakeholder in the process in order to make the international corporate landscape all the better. This notion is exemplified with each acquisition, where Cart.com realises that it is essentially embracing a whole new culture into itself. This means that the team has had to develop processes that allow it to embrace these things with efficacy, not stomping out the individuality that the acquired companies have developed whilst also not compromising on the standardized, streamlined processes that have made Cart.com the expert company it is. Therefore, Saheb sees acquisitions and the subsequent mergers as a complex puzzle; each piece must find its corresponding piece in order to make a bigger picture that allows for mutual success. Looking back at the past 12 months, after executing on the plan built in collaboration with the various departments at Cart.com, the company can proudly say that the acquisitions have created tremendous value, and that the team has given the wider company an exemplary chance to grow its efforts. Crucially, as a direct result, Cart.com’s clients have benefitted from an end-toend offering, and the flywheel has been able to continue turning at a rapid pace. The Strategy & Operations team operates with tremendous structure and transparency, and grants all stakeholders a comprehensive understanding of what makes its processes work; nominally, the team will take everyone involved through the steps of its mergers and acquisitions processes in as much detail as they require to be able to give them piece of mind, showing them how none of it is left to chance. So how does the team collaborate with the broader organization to determine which capabilities to develop or acquire? To design the strategic roadmap, Saheb pushes his team to build a “mosaic” by drawing insights from hundreds of places and people, putting value on each interaction, and following a ‘no stone unturned’ principle in order to build its cases. Thusly, his team has developed unique and highly data-driven ways of working from this detail-oriented approach, pushing hard to ensure Cart.com can enable brands to sell more in more places across the internet and expand their client base, all the while remaining critical about its own strengths and weaknesses. This attitude allows it to take on the criticisms and comments of all stakeholders with grace and sophistication, using this feedback to improve on a continuous basis. Therefore, Cart.com makes itself a darling of its industry, and a heavily competitive element of its market segment, as it can always keep up with what the professionals within it need. Currently in the midst of responding to the recent influx of new e-commerce businesses due to Covid-19 shutting down many brick and mortar stores – either temporarily or for good – it has been busier than ever with helping its professionals attain growth across all market channels. The world is also seeing a Direct-toConsumer revolution like never before, as evidenced by the rise of brands such as Warby Parker, Dollar Shave Club, and more, with a record number of these businesses selling through online channels and other digital marketing strategies. With an unprecedented growth for e-commerce that is showing no signs of slowing, Cart.com aims to simplify what it takes for brands to simultaneously grow while navigating an ever-changing landscape. It is aware that for some people, lack of technological knowhow could be a roadblock to getting into e-commerce, and it wishes to help these professionals adapt so that their exemplary products aren’t lost as a result. Brands of today need to be multichannel, i.e., sell on as many sales channels as possible; there’s no other way around it. But these brands don’t need to panic. Indeed, they can simply put this work in Cart.com’s expert hands and refocus their concentration on the business goals that truly matter to them, letting Cart.com do what it does best in order to manage their online digital footprint in a way that combines complex decision-making such as inventory synching and unified pricing strategies. Saheb would like to extend his heartfelt thanks to his entire family who have always shown their unwavering support for all his entrepreneurial endeavours. In addition, a huge shout-out goes out to the mentors who have helped him and the rest of Cart.com learn to execute with such efficiency, as well as the investors and Cart.com Board members who truly believe in the vision. He is also extremely appreciative of his entire Senior Leadership Team who are much more deserving of accolades, and their respective teams who continue to go the extra mile to effectively crosscollaborate with Saheb’s team. He would also like to extend a special thanks to his own staff, who he attributes this award to as a reflection of their hard work; he feels fortunate to have them alongside him every day and remains fully committed to their success. Having built a team that is consistently learning and growing, Saheb blocks off time every other week to have one-on-ones with members of his team and get an idea of how they are doing on an inter-personal level. Critically, this ensures that he can keep a beat on where his staff stand in both personal and professional growth, and that he can find ways to help them achieve their goals in an informal, friendly, and empathic environment where they feel secure and supported. This human-centric style of management, the team’s comprehensive approach to its work, and the Company’s dedication to rising to all challenges, has benefitted it hugely. The hyper-growth Cart.com has experienced since its inception 18 months ago, scaling past $3 billion in gross merchandise volume has meant it has been able to grow from a handful of employees to over 1,400 all over the world, keeping its processes and procedures aligned in the same direction so that everyone is on the same page. In addition, in order to create an environment of extreme transparency, the Company uses more tactical approaches such as an all-hands Zoom meeting every other week to talk about key business updates and ensure that everyone is kept informed, while concurrently relying on solutions such as Slack for inter-team and companywide communication. Saheb’s micro-strategies, detailed worksheets, timelines, and deliverables have kept him at the fore of all of this as he continues to foster personal and professional development within his team. Nominally, both to Saheb and Cart.com in the macro scale, there is a shared belief that ‘we are in this together and we will win together’, making its mission of enabling convenient e-commerce one that each employee can take personal pride in, with one of the recent successes the Company celebrated being its expansion into Europe. As it moves further into 2022, Cart.com will continue to push the successful scaling of its business as a priority, strategically adding new capabilities to its ever-growing platform and building the modern e-commerce stage into the best landscape it can be. Company: Cart.com Contact: Saheb Sabharwal Website: Cart.com Editorial Examples Newsletter Examples CEO MONTHLY / C-suite Awards 2022 6 CEO MONTHLY / C-suite Awards 2022 7 Most Innovative eCommerce CSO 2022: Saheb Sabharwal With an exemplary attitude towards growth, development, and corporate betterment, Cart.com has made itself an e-commerce linchpin in the growing international market. Aiding the changing landscape of digital sales – work that has become especially critical in the face of the pandemic – its team have been striving to shape contemporary e-commerce for the better, supporting its clients, staff, and stakeholders every step of the way. Due to mergers and acquisitions having become such a big part of this climb to the top, CSO Saheb Sabharwal has been a critical part of making this possible. he innovator behind one of the fastest growing ecommerce platforms globally Cart.com allows businesses to rapidly and efficiently scale their online sales, with critical solutions offered all in one place. Nominally, allowing clients to build up trust in its efforts through avenues such as a free software trial before they commit, it allows them to get an in-depth look into its expertise and diligence, with Cart.com showing the world how the democratizing of e-commerce can give brands the same complete digital compatibility as international industry titans. Being the first end-toend ecommerce solution provider, it delivers a fully integrated and seamless experience to its clients. This includes software, services, and infrastructure to help merchants thrive as an online business in a world where one’s digital footprint is more critical to success than ever, and in many cases aiding them to augment their brickand-mortar commerce by securing their online niche. Founded by e-commerce veterans, its leading minds know the struggles that its clients often face when undergoing this process, and consequently Cart.com works hard to mitigate all difficulties and to guide them through the thicket with an expert hand and shrewd eye. Today, Cart.com’s business management solutions include online store software, digital marketing, inventory storage and fulfilment, financial services, customer service capabilities, and unified, multi-platform analytics. Thus, Cart.com enables its customers to get a comprehensive and holistic view of their business’s health across all online platforms upon which they have a presence. By operating in this manner, it has been able to make itself an indispensable partner to clients of all scales and sectors, granting them access to the same digital and physical capabilities as the world’s largest e-commerce specialists. Having raised over $380 million in the first 12 months of its fundraising efforts, the Cart.com story is just beginning, emboldened by the exemplary leadership that has built this business up from a healthy foundation of empathy, tenacity, and innovation. As the Chief Strategy Officer of Cart.com, our award winner today, Saheb Sabharwal, has continued to be an invaluable element of the founding leadership team since the launch of the business in Q4 2020. Critically, this co-founder and front-runner leads Cart.com’s Strategy & Operations office, an element of the business that comprises of three separate functions. Firstly, it leads Cart.com’s roadmap and execution around mergers and acquisitions. Secondly, it handles the integration of the operations that the acquired companies have already developed, merging these processes with its own in order to create a result that betters the operations of both teams. And, finally, thirdly; it oversees the strategy and business operations of Cart.com in a broader sense – across all technology and service offerings – in order to ensure that various parts of the business are continually analysed and optimized for the benefit of all stakeholders involved. Mergers and acquisitions have proved a major boon to the Company in the time it has been in operation, and so Saheb Sabharwal and his staff have been incredibly busy, ready at any given moment to rise to the challenges put before them. With five major acquisitions completed over the past 12 months alone, Saheb was tasked to determine which companies to acquire, which capabilities within these companies made them so appealing, the sequence of those acquisitions, and how much money would be funnelled into each opportunity. This, of course, is a position of huge trust, requiring Saheb to oversee deals that amount to several millions worth in value and include a myriad of complex decisions, negotiations, and discussions. Prior to this role, Saheb gained expertise in handling complex roles like this by building up Cart.com’s internal processes. Nominally, his expertise was used in the hyper-scaling of the Company’s fulfilment-asa-service protocols from scratch, which formed the foundation of its now fully operational Supply Chain Network Design; most notably, launching 6 new fulfilment centres across the United States, which were up and running within 8 weeks, and the determination of what software and hardware would be of use at these centres to receive, store, package and ship out customers’ inventory. Mar22547 T This start-up effort involved coordination across different time zones with over 100 stakeholders – lawyers, landlords, utilities, government entities, vendors, trucks, personnel – and their individual wants, needs, and requirements. It is evident that this was a complex operational feat to achieve in a highly compressed timeline, but it was one that Saheb handled with sophistication and efficacy with the goal to make Cart.com an incredible business. Therefore, when it comes to discussions of what about his time as CSO has earned him this award, it is fair to say that every task he has undertaken at Cart.com has been proof of what entitles him to this accreditation. Today, as a result of both organic growth efforts and acquisitions, Cart.com’s fulfilment network benefits from an exemplary, standardised, and streamlined number of internal processes that ensure each fulfilment centre has the people, systems, and technology in place to effectively handle the receiving and shipping of products from all around the world. Saheb has also held P&L responsibility for one of Cart.com’s owned brands, one which doubled in revenue in 2021. Therefore, with every working day that goes by, Saheb has shown his dedication to the success of Cart.com and to everything it stands for. Since the very beginning, the Company has implemented the following values into every aspect of its business model: an obsession with brands (Cart.com’s customers), thinking beyond the box, tenacity, transparent culture, cooperation, and empathy. Always striving to be a better version of himself, Saheb uses the inspiration that his parents lit in him as fuel to continue his own personal career growth. This, of course, only helps Cart.com in the macro scale, as he sees the Company’s success as his own success, excited to be able to chase the ‘American dream’ and apply all he has learned from his personal life and varied experiences ranging from academia to corporate and entrepreneurial positions. Additionally, he has worked in plenty of mentoring, coaching, and teaching roles, finding these immensely rewarding and taking lessons from them in how to empathise with the different
