Case Study: Malwarebytes achieves accelerated growth with WorkBoard

Malwarebytes - Customer Case Study

Malwarebytes, founded by CEO Marcin Kleczynski from a dorm‑room project into a global cybersecurity company with hundreds of millions in revenue and ~850 employees, faced the classic scaling challenges: thousands of daily micro‑decisions, fading culture after large summits stopped, and hundreds of misaligned, outcome‑poor initiatives that drained time and focus. Leadership needed a clearer way to align teams, measure outcomes, and decide what to keep or kill.

Malwarebytes implemented enterprise OKRs on WorkBoard—CEO‑sponsored with the Chief People Officer as business owner, 60 OKR coaches, and a focused rollout of 20 company initiatives under three simple objectives (Grow, Efficiency, People). Team‑level OKR sessions created a common language, cross‑functional alignment, visible key results and regular updates, producing a cultural shift toward accountability and focus and, according to Marcin, an acceleration of growth this year.
