Data and AI are reshaping the world — and at the heart of that transformation in ANZ is Adam Beavis, Vice President and Country Manager of Databricks.
With a career spanning leadership roles at AWS and Stax, Adam has guided high-growth organisations through some of their most transformative years. Now at Databricks — one of the fastest-scaling tech companies in history, valued at over $100B — he’s helping enterprises unlock the true power of Data and AI at scale.
But Adam’s story isn’t just about business. He’s also taken on gruelling endurance challenges like Ironman — using those experiences to build resilience, focus, and the mindset required to perform at the highest level.
In this conversation, we explore:
- What’s fueling Databricks’ $100B momentum, and what it means for AI adoption in ANZ.
- How successful companies turn AI pilots into lasting business impact.
- The habits, hiring principles, and mindset Adam uses to build elite teams.
This isn’t just a story about technology. It’s about leadership, resilience, and the pursuit of high performance — in business and in life.
🎧 Whether you’re building teams, scaling technology, or pushing your own limits, this episode will leave you inspired to aim higher.
