There's quite a number more and we'll be putting together a dedicated page with all aggregated.
The problem I've had with conventional executive interviews is they tend to be shallow and not really interviews, more like thinly veiled press releases organized in a Q&A format.
I've been happy that our interviews ask hard and direct questions while allowing executives to share their perspectives. And our interview reports tend to be quite long so they provide deeper context about their approach.
It balances well our critical and investigative reporting by allowing us and our readers to understand where executives are coming from.
This year, we have done this in a fairly uncoordinated manner, so if we have not reached out to specific companies, it's not a strategic decision as much as we have been feeling out how and who to do interviews with.
We are trying to focus on companies that are at least one of the following - different, growing and/or large.
If you are interested in doing an interview with us, please email info@ipvm.com to discuss.
If you have questions on how we are doing this, suggestions for improvements, etc. let us know.
