A Chief Revenue Officer's real job is building the system that makes deals repeatable, where sales, marketing, and RevOps move as one integrated motion instead of three disconnected teams. That's the thesis Brian Krause, CRO at Aware, brings from a career built across AnyVision, Veriff, and Incode, where he more than doubled North America's ARR. Brian believes that revenue growth follows structure, not heroics, and that structure is what separates a CRO from a VP of Sales with a bigger title.
Throughout his years of experience one thing keeps resonating wherever he goes: financial fluency is the foundation underneath that structure. Reading a P&L the way most people read a deck lets a CRO build ROI models tied to what a customer's business actually needs.
Which is why he challenges himself and his team every day to reach their potential. Borrowing a line from coach Nick Saban, he knows that average is a human condition, but he’s convinced that great leaders push their teams to be extraordinary, showing them they're capable of more, then stay shoulder to shoulder while they prove it.
In sales, information is the real currency, and AI has become the tool that shortens the distance between a rep and the right data necessary to take action and boost productivity. He knows it can be tempting for RevOps teams to spin up different tools and systems while handling sensitive information, so it’s important for teams to prioritize security and the CISO get involved early enough to keep customer data out of the wrong model.
