Kate Stevens is a Senior Consultant at Slalom. Colleagues describe them as "Few project managers are skilled, experienced, flexible, and driven enough to handle early stage product deployments. Katie is so skilled and experienced a project leader that she makes it look easy. The product team at Contact Solutions was fortunate to have a direct reporting role that was sanctioned to drive all early deployment products, but this is less than half the role that Katie flawlessly executed. The Beta Project Manager is also responsible for drilling down on every issue; filtering or advocating all customer feedback and needs, and operationalizing every aspect of the product and how it touches the delivery and support organizations. Katie covered this herculean task for multiple products, and for multiple diverse and demanding pilot customers at one time. This includes the lead deployment for My:Time [TM], Contact Solutions' web and mobile digital engagement product. After deployment with the #1 mobile app in the insurance space, Katie was so enmeshed with every aspect of the customer organization that she became part of their team. This was a huge factor in the successful outcome and would not happen without an immense skill, which Katie brings to the table. She is also nothing short of a joy to work with, responding to challenge after challenge, internal and external, with unwavering energy and can-do spirit. " and "I have worked with Kate at three companies, AOL, SunRocket and K12. I have always been impressed by Kate's ability to manager complicated projects, both from a technical perspective as well as a people wrangling perspective. While she is extremely organized and thorough, she is also flexible in fast paced environments like K12. Kate's easy going and can-do attitude make her great to work with."
