Colleagues describe him as "I had the pleasure to work with Howie for about a year at Comcast, where he was assigned as a PM in my Team in 2022. With his vast knowledge, acumen and experience in Project and Program, Howie was not only able to rapidly start on his assignments, but also provide valuable insights and best practices, bringing immediate value to the team. A great communicator, he established strong lines of continued dialogue with the PM team, the Leadership and Stakeholders, setting clear expectations, and identifying any risk or course correction needed. Howie is also an avid learner, and not afraid of leaning into new ideas, processes or cultures. When facing a new paradigm, Howie will do his research, practice active listening, and adapt, with an agile mind-set. Thanks to these attributes, Howie established himself as a trusted partner and advisor; it allowed me to transfer a key priority project entirely to him, which he successfully ran for the Sales team, on the behalf of the PMO organization. Finally, Howie is a fantastic team-mate: he will take the necessary time to connect with both stakeholders, other PMs and leadership, to establish relationships, all the while providing continued support. He is directly supporting the Sales Organization at Comcast, but we continue to have our touchpoints for knowledge sharing, partnership, and camaraderie.", "Howard is a seasoned professional in program management. He has proven his expertise in the field with success in various industries, including telecommunications and education. I worked with Howard in the education industry. He is a motivational, fair manager who brings out the very best in people. He motivates, inspires, and educates as part of his management style. His management philosophy inspires everyone around him to be the best they can be. He is a teacher and coach at heart, and those qualities bring out amazing things in the people he works with. Howard backs his coworkers and employees with experience, education, and trust. Howard is a transformational leader. He works with each employee's potential to bring out their very best performance. In my experience, Howard never loses sight of the big picture and company goals. These qualities bring out team performances that far surpass the sum of individual talents. I have learned a great deal from him at Pearson and at ACT Aspire, LLC, and would strongly recommend him for any leadership role.", and "Howie Vernon was the first executive in place at ACT Aspire, preceding even the CEO. He built the foundation upon which we were able to frame our business and then quickly secure and support enterprise-level customers. As an executive, Howie was responsible for the most important element of our business – the customer. He directed the development of our comprehensive on-boarding and support processes that proved critical to our success. With his leadership we exceeded all of our company goals and expectations. Howie’s extensive knowledge and practical application allow him to be cross-functionally effective and simultaneously comfortable in both the earliest stage company and the largest multinational corporation. With his proven track record, I believe Howie Vernon can make just about any company a far more effective one."
