Cody Guymon

COO, Global Sales at Qualtrics

The first thing I want you to know about me is that, whoever you are reading this, I’m just as eager to learn from you as you might be to learn about me. Over the past decade, I have been a strategic sales & operations leader, first for Vivint and now Qualtrics. To help Qualtrics go from a $1B unicorn to an $8B SAP acquisition and then through an IPO at a $20B+ valuation has been one of the most exhilarating and educational experiences of my life. As the Qualtrics Global Sales COO, my daily focus is to enable our sales & business professionals to exceed their targets. I love being their partner and winning together. Key experiences I bring to any challenge: -Go-to-Market (GTM) strategy & execution in high-growth companies -How to take a company public & the day-to-day nuances of operating in a public environment -Strategic partnership with Chief Revenue & Operations Officers to deliver against executive targets -Delivery of worldwide/regional sales competitions with demonstrated impact & high sales engagement -Forecasting methodology, annual quota planning & distribution -Sales operations leadership, initiatives & analytics -Driving operational efficiency & pipeline generation/coordination Accomplishments: -Recognized as one of Utah’s 2020 Business Executive 40-under-40: I am honored that others see what I have accomplished so far and believe the best is yet to come. -Awarded 2019 Qualtrics People Leader of the Year: I was inspired early by Dale Carnegie’s “How to Win Friends & Influence People”, in particular the emphasis that you have to genuinely care. This award was evidence I am growing into the type of leader I strive to be. -Former All American Division-1 Baseball Player & Captain: I’m intensely competitive and motivated by a desire to win as a unit. To accomplish great things in anything, it takes leaders who get contributions from the whole roster.
