Dina Aletra, founder of Aletra Communications SAGL, recently interviewed Alex Birch, co-founder and CEO of XY Sense, to understand the key leadership principles that have under-pinned our rapid global growth. 🌍💡 Here are just a few of the principles Alex lives by: 🔑 Lead by example – Whether it’s coding, pitching, or giving feedback, Alex believes in leading from the front. His hands-on approach sets the tone for a high-performance culture where accountability is key. 🔑 Empathy with our customers and team – Leadership isn’t just about tough calls; it’s about understanding our people. Alex’s focus on empathy has created a workplace where collaboration thrives and loyalty runs deep. 🔑 Transparent communication – We believe in sharing the truth, no matter how tough it may be. Keeping our team in the loop and explaining the why behind decisions is what makes us stronger and more united. 🔑 Poise under pressure – Staying calm and composed, especially during tough times, matters. As Alex says, “Your company probably won’t die on the latest piece of bad news,” but how we respond matters. Reacting emotionally can undermine trust, and we value poise and conviction in decision-making. Alex’s leadership has been a driving force behind our growth and his commitment to creating a transparent, empathetic, and high-performing environment has made XY Sense a place we’re all proud to be a part of.
