WSJ Profiles Salesforce's Susan St. Ledger

In this weeks Wall Street Journal "How I Got Here" feature, the paper profiles Salesforce.com's Susan St. Ledger. St. Ledger is Senior vice president, High Tech and Manufacturing Vertical.

On her move from Sun to Salesforce.com:

Sun was an amazing company. I really had a fabulous experience there. I learned a ton. I really feel like they shaped my career. But I had been there 12-and-a-half years, and I felt like I wasn't growing at the same pace that I had been growing at earlier in my career. I had discussions with several mentors, and one of them asked what I really needed to round out my resume and take it to the next step. Timing was everything. I wasn't actively looking, but I had just started to think seriously about what a move might look like and at that point, I received a call from salesforce.com. When I got to know them better and saw their vision, it just completely blew me away. I couldn't resist the challenge.

Am I mistaken or is this the same person that was SVP of Professional Services at Salesforce, failed, moved on to be the SVP of Platform sales, failed, moved on to be the SVP of High Tech at Salesforce and......we will see. Nice article from someone who keeps moving around so the HR department cannot find her to administer her pink slip.....not one to learn from here folks.
