Xero Leadership & Management

I try to lead authentically and create an environment where the team feels confident to challenge the status quo, stay curious, and continue to innovate. Collaboration is central to how I work because I believe the strongest results come from the collective power of the team.

Xero invests in leadership development through structured programs that equip managers at every stage of their careers with the skills, feedback and support needed to lead effectively. By combining formal training with peer learning, the company helps leaders grow while building a collaborative management culture.

“We have a program in place specifically for leaders in the company called M@X (Managing at Xero). This helps us to grow through not only training but situational feedback from our peer groups. The program has three tiers: one for aspiring leaders looking to take the next step, another for those who just moved into a leadership role and a third for people who have been in leadership for some time. I’ve really enjoyed the situational feedback since it allowed me to realize that managers across very different functions of the business were dealing with very similar employee issues as I was.”
