SurveyMonkey went public three years after its CEO, Dave Goldberg, suddenly died. The company is now run by Zander Lurie.

at the beginning of 2016. While conflicted, he accepted because"I just felt these really strong ties to the board of SurveyMonkey and its team, and in part to carry on the legacy that Dave had created."Lurie hosted a company all-hands meeting 48 hours after Goldberg's death, and offered employees a day off to spend time with their loved ones.

Such honesty might have deepened the firm's vulnerability, but Lurie says the long-term impact on SurveyMonkey is a more open culture. SurveyMonkey is still maybe best known to consumers as the company which does online surveys, but the firm has built out its enterprise offering for businesses who pay to drill down into attitudes of customers and employees.
