Katie and I worked together as leaders when our organization consolidated several disparate functions and people from vertical organizations into a large, horizontal team. Katie stepped up to create a single, cohesive, engaging culture for the newly formed team.
Katie effectively defined key problems to address, created a planning discipline with clearly stated outcomes and measurable key results, and delivered consistently with high quality. Katie's efforts resulted in over a 25% increase in associate engagement within 6 months, which she achieved while the team was 100% virtual.
Katie proactively develops and drives strategy to solve big problems, with a people first mindset. Her ability to lead a large team through a mutli-dimensional change paid big dividends to the organization, and allowed us to get meaningful business results out of a highly engaged team.
I would recommend Katie for any role where there is a need to create structure and drive outcomes within an uncertain environment, while actively creating a positive culture along the way.
