Tamara Barthel is a Founder and Executive Director at CReW. Colleagues describe them as "Tamara is the kind of rare and unique manager who leads from the front, demonstrating excellent leadership skills at every step. I was blessed to have reported into Tamara for five years while in my role as Director of Service Delivery, EMEA at Glue Networks, Inc.. As Vice President, Service Delivery, Tamara assembled the global three-tier support and delivery team I was part of. She organised Service Delivery's working process in a clear and precise way whilst enabling each engineer to demonstrate the full extent of their professional skills. While responsible for several intense projects under Tamara's direction, I observed how her deep empathy enables her to lift spirits and motivate teams and how her thoughtfulness extends beyond the workplace. She truly cares about people in a way that goes well beyond what one would expect from a professional in her position. Tamara possesses this rare combination of effective disciplined leadership and innate empathy towards her teams and colleagues. She is the ultimate people manager and will be an asset to any company." and "I have known Tamara for the last 4 years, and have worked with her in a number of capacities, however, over the last 6 months we have worked more closely together on a number of initiatives. Tamara uses her broad business experience and sound judgement to quickly bring focus to any initiative and build an executable plan. Tamara is skilled at communicating the core elements of a business plan, clearly articulating the vision, the key differentiators and evaluating any risks involved. I have greatly valued the consultancy and advice given by Tamara, which has led to more effective decision making in our business ventures. I have no hesitation in recommending Tamara and look forward to continuing to liaise with her in the future."
