Douglas Renner is a Head of Sales, Americas at Cognigy. He possess expertise in managed services, business development, enterprise software, management, product marketing and 43 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "Doug Renner is *hands down* one of the best humans I have ever had the pleasure of working with. I reported to Doug as we launched the Avaya Strategic Partnership with RingCentral, and throughout that time he was a strong leader in every capacity. His leadership style is magnetizing; fostering a culture of inclusiveness and recognition that, in turn, led to his team feeling more like a family. He achieves this by being kind, competent, attentive, thorough, methodical, and a phenomenal advocate for his employees and the work that they produce. Doug's attention to detail and operations allowed him to redirect the team focus as needed along the way in order to get the highest value out of the partnership. Though he was incredibly busy, he is someone who finds time for both initiatives needing executive sponsorship and 1 on 1 conversations to help rebalance the team morale. He encourages his employees and recognizes individual strengths in a way that allows his reports to bring their best to the table. Conversely, he also recognizes when someone needs to take personal time or reset boundaries for work/life balance. His presence in the partner community is authentic, and people who work with him trust him, like him, and truly listen to what he has to say. He presents as smart and steady, which is always a perfect combination for a leadership role. I am lucky to have had a chance to work with Doug and would work for him again in a heartbeat!"
