INNOVATION THAT TRAVELS
Developing products that go the distance
As product manager, Alexis Rochat feels like he’s traveling hundreds of miles per hour — no pun intended. “This isn’t a typical product organization,” he said. “No two days are the same, and although intense, they are incredibly rewarding.” In his role, Rochat strives to champion users and bring a consumer-grade product to the corporate travel space, from searching and booking to post-booking management. “Feedback is never in short supply, and balancing it is one of my greatest challenges,” he added. “We’re turning the trillion-dollar travel industry on its head — but therein lies the thrill!”

Though he only joined the team in February 2023, Sean Jarett already feels right at home. “There’s a collective sense of empathy and empowerment that encourages each individual to lead with kindness,” he said. As director of L&D, Jarett infuses those values into an environment that’s conducive for growth. Additional building blocks include fundamentals-focused webinars, Udemy courses, skill development programs and impactful one-on-ones. “The idea is to create high levels of trust so employees feel confident developing their own solutions and decisions with my perspective as a sense check.”
