Behavox Adds Former Splunk Chief Revenue Officer to Board of Directors

We’re very excited to add a new member to our Board of Directors, as former Splunk CRO and BMC executive Tom Schodorf has joined the Behavox Board.

“Tom is a tremendous addition to our board. His extensive background in building, leading, and expanding sales operations at technology companies will play a crucial role in our continued growth and development,” said Erkin Adylov, Founder and CEO of Behavox. “Tom will be critical to advising our business on driving opportunities that help customers organize and make useful all of their enterprise communications data.”

Schodorf has more than 30 years experience as an operator for software and SaaS companies. He serves on a number of public and private company boards and provides consultation services in the tech industry. Most recently he was the CRO of Splunk, Inc., where he grew bookings more than 20-fold in five years while helping the company IPO and generate more than $10 billion in market value. Prior to Splunk, he had long tenures at BMC Software and IBM, where he held a number of positions in sales and ran business units.


“What attracts me most to Behavox is our common belief that what is right for the customer and the shareholder leads to the best decisions,” Schodorf said. “I am a proponent of transformational leadership that aggressively builds for the long term while getting short-term results, and I look forward to working with Erkin and Behavox in helping them achieve similar goals.”

Schodorf’s vast experience in running complex, go-to-customer operations in the United States, Asia, and Europe led him to co-author, “The Success Cadence,” which underscores the special responsibility and importance that a high-performing sales function has in achieving hyper growth.
