In the most recent Executive Spotlight interview, ExecutiveBiz spoke with Eric Trexler, vice president of sales for global governments at Forcepoint, to discuss how the company created its value to reflect what it stands for in this market, resonate with its workforce and differentiate itself from most industry players. He also talked about efforts to ensure long-term success for Forcepoint employees and drive value for customers.
Here’s an excerpt from the interview with Trexler:
“Forcepoint has a laser focus on hiring from the military because their personnel understands the problems that our customers have and are bringing in some characteristics that are unteachable from a commercial company.
At the end of the day, it’s about our team at Forcepoint and understanding who our customers are in this business. They’re mostly defensive intelligence and pulling our employees from that talent pool is smart because they think like our customers already. Our focus is always on our customers, so why wouldn’t we hire the people who think like them out of the gate.”
