Mark Hurd was CEO of Oracle Corporation, where he led Oracle’s cloud transformation and grew the salesforce. He was devoted to tennis and a Baylor alumni.
Discussing the future of sales with @DardenMBA’s @TomSteenburgh during @StanfordGSB conference. Invest in your sales pros. Train them. Be patient. Share experience. They are valuable & can help take your business where your customers need it to be.
Love talking to mid-sized companies about #cloud because it puts powerful @Oracle applications in their hands to help take their businesses to new levels. These folks are excited about tools that make them smarter about their customers & improve efficiency.
Really important conversation at #OracleMBX Higher Education Summit. Higher ed’s business model has to adapt to meet the challenge of teaching the best students in the world. @Oracle puts schools in the best position to succeed.
With my favorite customers today: @AdventistHealth’s @ConstantHope & @HormelFoods’ Gary Jamison, who trusted @Oracle with their organizational transformations & then shared their stories with thousands on the @OracleMBX keynote stage.
Good give and take with industry analysts about risks of #AI. I’m less worried about the Terminator than the economic risk of not leading in it because it will create more jobs than it destroys. #OracleMBX
Taking a quick break from #OracleMBX to call into @BloombergSports & talk about @Oracle’s sports commitment with @Soshnick@BigBarrSports & @novy_williams. Our goal is to make memories for fans & customers that can’t be made by anyone else.
Backstage prep with @Oracle’s @RTarkoff before #OracleMBX chat. We all love telling stories about lousy #CX, but none of us like getting it. There’s no excuse: use #tech to refocus your business & put customers back at the center.
Thanks to @HEUG for sharing your insights & experiences during your visit to @Oracle HQ this week. We’re proud to help you & your institutions deliver high quality education to students around the world. #HEUGCloud19
Talking global markets, #IT spending & @Oracle growth with @Business’ @TSGiles during #OracleCloudDay in New York. Look forward to more conversations today with customers – we’re listening because the secret to our success is ensuring yours.
Amazing day! Such an honor to meet the greatest baseball player ever – Willie Mays – as @Oracle supports @SFGiants by renaming the ballpark Oracle Park. Safra & I will wear our new jerseys from Giants CEO Larry Baer with pride. Let’s go Giants!
