Success Stories Okta

One Team, One Family

Okta’s Customer Success team grew from 4 to 25 by creating a magnetic culture where trust, collaboration, and shared values drew talent in and kept it thriving. The result: zero attrition in seven years, consistent promotion from within, and a team where healthy and collaborative behaviours became instinctive.

The Challenge

Puzzle Icon
  • Founded in 2009, Okta scaled rapidly from pre-IPO to its first billion in revenue.
  • Sustaining that pace of growth required more than great products.
  • It demanded a strong culture that could scale with the ability to attract and retain top talent in a highly competitive market.
Team Collaboration

Our Approach

Gears Icon
  • Amplified Group helped establish a team baseline using the Five Behaviors™ process and DiSC® assessments, giving the team a shared language to understand working styles and improve collaboration.
  • A two-day workshop designed by Amplified Group aligned priorities and introduced practical tools for decision-making and collective accountability.
  • To embed these behaviors as muscle memory, Amplified Group guided senior team members to become internal coaches, supporting onboarding, reinforcing practices, and running monthly assessments to maintain focus and measure progress.
  • Every new hire was onboarded using this framework, ensuring the culture was consistent and self-sustaining.
