My range of experience means I've been part of explosive startup growth as well as new growth within very established companies. It means I've been a hands-on marketer as well as a senior leader of large teams at companies with revenue exceeding $1B.WHY I DO ITBecause I believe these things about work and business: - People should love coming to work. - Customers should love the product or service they buy. - Companies win when they make employees and customers a key part of their growth strategy.HOW I DO ITThrough leadership, focus and data. My straightforward and honest leadership style builds trust, discourages personal agendas and aligns teams around company goals. I focus on shared goals to rally teams around an aligned approach and eliminate competing priorities between key functions. Finally, I make data meaningful. With great technology, data abounds. Sometimes to the point of distraction. My successes have come from ensuring that the team, the technology and the data are clearly focused on the same outcomes.HOW I STAY SANEFamily. Wellness.
