Ep.255: Alex (@aebridgeman) is joined by Savneet Singh (@SavneetS).

In this episode, I sit down with Savneet Singh, CEO of PAR Technology, to explore the interplay between urgency, culture, and leadership in building a successful public company. We discuss how Savneet has embedded a sense of urgency as a core value at PAR and how it drives decision-making, team alignment, and outcomes across the organization.

Our conversation delves into PAR's unique approach to team evaluation and incentivization, including how performance reviews are tied to the company's values and metrics. Savneet shares how he identifies and retains ambitious talent through innovative compensation structures and leadership opportunities, ensuring that the culture evolves while focusing on delivering results.

We also dive into PAR’s M&A strategy, where Savneet highlights the importance of creating synergy through product integration and customer outcomes. He offers candid insights into lessons learned from organizational design missteps and discusses the role of AI and data in shaping PAR’s future.
