Leadership

We’d like you to meet our whole team, but let’s start with our inspirational leaders.

Chief Executive Officer

Chris is a seasoned technology services executive with more than 15 years in the Salesforce ecosystem. He believes that with strong teams and customers willing to embrace change, anything is possible.

Chris Conant

I love disruptive technology and helping companies find innovative ways to create addictive customer experiences. I’m grateful for the relationships I have developed over the years and continue to be inspired by quietly brilliant people. Having raised a family in Chicago, I’m passionate about increasing support for Public Education at all levels. In my spare time you will find me hacking it up on the golf course, hanging out with family & friends or taking an afternoon nap with the dogs.

Founder & Chief Innovation Officer

With 20+ years of experience in technology, consulting, and finance, Manvir has been leading Zennify since Day 1. He was named a 2021 Most Admired Executive by the Sacramento Business Journal.

Manvir Sandhu

I landed my dream job when we started Zennify. I lead a remarkable group of people with a uniquely special culture that seizes opportunities for innovation and delivers amazing results for every kind of business. I enjoy staying active in business and technology groups as part of the Salesforce Partner Advisory Board, the Greater Sacramento Economic Council, and the Sacramento Salesforce User Group. Spending time with my wife and three kids and following football keep me inspired!

Chief Delivery Officer

Matt has worked with services companies for more than 20 years. Familiar with high-growth environments, he was instrumental in scaling Sumtotal Systems, Appirio and 7Summits. He’s an expert in growing talent organizations while implementing operational models for scale.

Matt Henwood

I’m a people-centric, delivery person to the core. I truly enjoy growing high-performing teams and providing them support that leads to their success. Outside of work, I am an avid runner and fitness enthusiast, which has helped me (try) to keep up with my 4 boys. My wife and I are Rochester natives, both with large families that primarily reside in upstate NY. I enjoy my Harley in the summer months, try to find time to go fishing, and love a good book.

Chief Financial Officer

Christina is an experienced Chief Financial Officer with decades of experience. She is instrumental in formulating strategies that increase profitability and maximizing stakeholder values.

Christina Bailey

I am a proven global Chief Financial Officer with extensive experience in strategic planning & operations leadership, working in diverse industries, business transformation, and maximizing stakeholder value. I am extremely passionate about implementing finance and operations initiatives that improve processes, reduce expenses and drive bottom-line profitability.

Chief Revenue Officer

Mike has spent 30+ years leading and implementing customer-first business and technology solutions. Most recently he was SVP, Financial Services at Salesforce. Prior to that Mike was a senior technology and operations executive at Bank of America, as well as an executive at Accenture in their Financial services practice. He is also a military veteran.

Michael Rouleau

I believe being a services partner is a privilege. It means your customer entrusts their success with you and if done well, that trust is returned. The customer can run their business in new and innovative ways to extend their capabilities across their business, maximizing end-user participation in the growth of their company. I am a New England native now living in Charlotte. In my spare time I enjoy fitness, chess, reading, and giving back to my local and global communities.

Founder & Director of IT

Problem solving runs in Jesse’s blood. As Zennify’s Swiss Army Knife, Jesse manages internal IT infrastructure, operations, employee programs and more.

Jesse Barker

I love solving problems. And I love getting to know people. Doing both daily at Zennify is a dream. I’ve helped countless companies work through their toughest challenges by developing solutions that streamline their operations, improve their bottom lines, and empower their people. I stay inspired by building the Zennify team, teaching the next wave of problem solvers, and spending time with my wife of 16 years and 4 children.

Vice President of Technology

Philip brings 20+ years of technology leadership to Zennify. He keeps our tech and business initiatives aligned by applying his deep knowledge of business strategy, enterprise architecture, data, cloud, and analytics.

Philip Paz

I’m a technologist at heart. I geek out over the latest technology trends and share my love for digital innovation with my team to foster talent, diversify their skills, and provide opportunities for growth. I feel lucky to be part of such a dynamic and rewarding team. I keep my eyes on the future, but the support and love of my wife and daughter keep me grounded. In my free time, you’ll find me in my loft, guitar in hand, living out my rockstar dreams.

Vice President of People Operations

Janet loves the PEOPLE aspect of working in People Ops. She brings 25+ years of experience supporting individuals, managers, and executives in attaining their career and business objectives.

Janet Larsen

From the beginning, Zennify has placed a great deal of emphasis on people. And it’s safe to say that supporting this talented team, building programs that engage people in their growth, and fostering development are what get me out of bed in the morning. Leveraging this passion to help scale our organization without losing sight of our culture and values has been a delight. I appreciate a good glass of wine and sometimes even a bad one.
