As president and CEO of Blackbaud (BLKB), the world’s leading cloud software company powering social good, I’m focused on delivering unmatched value and innovation to organizations and individual change agents that build a better world. I believe success stems from: • Putting customers at the center of everything we do -- every day. • Fostering an inclusive, purpose-focused culture for our team -- where every voice matters. We have recently been listed as the 18th largest Cloud applications company worldwide by IDC, and we are powering the digital transformation of the social good community through purpose-built, comprehensive cloud solutions that drive impact and outcomes for our customers. Every day I’m energized to see the results of our software, services, data intelligence, and expertise in addressing the unique needs of our millions of users in 60 countries -- including nonprofits, foundations, faith based institutions, companies, education institutions, healthcare organizations, and the individual change agents who support them. I’m especially proud to lead an organization that holds spots on Forbes’ lists for best employers for diversity and best employers for women. And while Blackbaud already produces significant social good thought leadership we have exciting work ahead with our new Blackbaud Institute Advisory Board to take that conversation to new heights and new potential for all we serve. In conjunction with leading Blackbaud, I also serve on public and mission-based boards, including the Clemson University President’s Advisory Board, Teradata, and the International African American Museum Board. I'm passionate about advocating for innovation in the tech sector that can help good take over.

Brian Matthew Krzanich (born May 9, 1960) is an American engineer and businessman currently serving as the chief executive officer of CDK Global. Krzanich joined Intel as an engineer in 1982 and served as chief operating officer (COO) before being promoted to CEO. As CEO, Krzanich was credited for diversifying Intel's product offerings and workforce. However, during Krzanich's term as CEO, Intel went through major restructurings and pulled out of the mobile chip market. Because of Krzanich's decisions, Intel also struggled to produce 10-nanometer chips, compared to chip manufacturers TSMC and Samsung, resulting in numerous delays and a loss of market share in the computer chip business to rivals like AMD.
