Our Leadership

We're driven by the same focused philosophy that existed when Jim Goodnight and John Sall created SAS: Advancements in data and AI technologies make the unimaginable possible. SAS provides knowledge in the moments that matter and earns the trust of our customers every day.

"Treat employees like they make a difference and they will."
