Unlike typical Silicon Valley companies whose boards are dominated by investors, Paradox founder and CEO Aaron Matos said he was intentional about building a board that prioritized innovation, client value, and inclusivity. That meant focusing on leaders with tangible experience helping global organizations navigate digital transformation and fundamental shifts in talent management.

“When we founded Paradox, I made a commitment to building the best possible team to build the best possible products for our clients,” said Matos, who will continue to serve on Paradox’s board. “That starts with recruiting the best employees and board members we can find — and we certainly checked that box with Diana, Deepak, and Huggy. I couldn’t be happier to add all three to our board. They were at the top of my list and we feel incredibly fortunate to have the opportunity to learn from them as we scale.”
