Rachael Powell is the Chief Customer Officer of Xero.


She is an incredible leader; warm, empathetic and incredibly successful, and she is loved by everyone I’ve met that knows her.


She is coming to the end of 8 amazing years of growth and success at Xero, and I have the pleasure of interviewing her as she closes one chapter and opens the next one!


This interview covers a number of important topics, including:

  • The attributes of successful leadership
  • Hiring staff on values alignment to build culture, growth and success
  • Engaging employees by focusing on their strengths
  • Embracing a curious mindset, being agile, dealing with setbacks, and 
  • Learning from failures, and embracing change
