This leader will be accountable for delivering a capital structure that provides the necessary liquidity and flexibility to support the Company's growth objectives while returning excess capital to shareholders — and for exceeding benchmark returns on Salesforce's global investment portfolio while maintaining the appropriate liquidity and risk profile.
