Stakeholder Feedback

Observations from cross-functional teams and matrixed leadership.

"You speak both tech and biz. You mediate and advocate for both sides. The tech guys can say their 'stuff' and you can turn right around and make it so I understand. Then you can hear what I'm saying and tell it to the tech guys in a way that they understand as well."

— Cross-Functional Stakeholder

"Completely and totally outside the box thinking—encourages others to dream bigger. You exhibit patience and zero annoyance, making it completely comfortable to approach you for anything."
