Roderick Hugh Alexander Macleod is a Senior Manager, Product Marketing and Strategy at 2U. He possess expertise in editing, rewriting, opinion pieces, public speaking, writing and 19 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "Roderick has enriched my career in ways I cannot fully describe. When it came to his work, he constantly looked at ways to iterate and improve processes and collateral - always checking to see if we were doing things in the most efficient and effective way possible and in a way that was offering the most value to clients. His ability to draw on his life and work experience to inform what he does and how he approaches projects is honestly amazing. Furthermore, his pragmatism ensures his strategies are based on the real-life situation, and not a romanticised idea of the problem, which so many digital marketers and strategists can so easily be misled by. When it came to managing myself and my teammates, Rod hit the perfect balance of mentor and manager. He pushed me to find a niche and get good at it. He pushed me to pursue aspects of the job and the business that interested me, instead of simply checking boxes on my job description. This ultimately helped me quickly progress up the ranks. Roderick is an asset to any team - be it as a leader, a valuable contributor, or a light-hearted human armed with a wicked sense of humour." and "Roderick possesses that rare but sought-after combination of marketing expertise, creative talent and commercial insight. Working closely with Roderick over two years - I witnessed firsthand his ability to elevate a marketing team to greater heights through his collaborative nature, growth mindset and unwavering commitment to reaching team goals. I jump at the chance to recommend him for any role, as he will undoubtedly continue to excel, inspire his team, and leave a lasting impact wherever he goes."
