Friday's Last Word: Spanning CEO Jeff Erramouspe
Spanning CEO Jeff Erramouspe wasn't always the CEO of a cloud-to-cloud backup company. He's had years of experience leading marketing and analytics processes in other companies first. But now that he's head of Spanning, how does he spend his time outside of the office?
To find out who Erramouspe is outside of his office, click through this slideshow.
ERRAMOUSPE: Cheap Thrills, a dark (and I mean really dark) comedy about how far someone will go to provide for their family.
TALKIN CLOUD's SPIN: In other words, a movie about family that shouldn’t be watched with the family.
ERRAMOUSPE: Rebirth Brass Band at the Howlin’ Wolf in New Orleans. Great energy, amazing show. I was a jazz trumpet player and I love a good New Orleans Brass Band.
TALKIN CLOUD's SPIN: How could one go wrong in New Orleans? Actually, there are plenty of ways — but that’s not from personal experience.
ERRAMOUSPE: 2010 Mini Cooper S that I bought last June. Now that I commute downtown, I wanted better gas mileage and something easier to park than my BMW M3.
TALKIN CLOUD's SPIN: Ah, nice subtle mention of the BMW.
ERRAMOUSPE: “Multipliers” by Liz Wiseman. A book on leadership that provides a good model for the leader I’d like to be.
TALKIN CLOUD's SPIN: How can leaders make everyone else smarter? This book has the answers.
ERRAMOUSPE: iPhone 5 in Dec 2012. I’m not much of a gadget guy. Unless you count kitchen gadgets — I love to cook. I think last one of those was a new rice cooker.
TALKIN CLOUD's SPIN: For future reference: Kitchen gadgets do count.
ERRAMOUSPE: True Detective — I’ve never seen anything like it on TV. Great writing, directing and acting. Very cinematic and Matthew McConaughey is better here than in Dallas Buyers Club.
TALKIN CLOUD's SPIN: So many shows to watch, so little time.
ERRAMOUSPE: Slate, I think. Thoughtful analysis on news and current events.
TALKIN CLOUD's SPIN: That’s one way to get your news.
ERRAMOUSPE: Brooklyn #2. It’s a twist on a Manhattan at the Firehouse in downtown Austin.
TALKIN CLOUD's SPIN: Bourbon adds a kick to any cocktail — a good kick.
