I am passionate about understanding, teaching, and motivating people.
It's why I have been so successful at building happy, successful and high performing teams.
It's why I am a marketer. Because marketing resides at the junction where understanding, persuasion and motivation come together.
It is why I am passionate about digital, and it's potential to reach and touch people in ways we couldn't have imagined just a few years ago.
I also am passionate about success
became a marketer only after several half hearteerd attempts at writing short stories and screen plays, and brief career as a sportswriter. Much to my surprise, I found that I loved it. I quickly discovered marketing brought together two of my passions: understanding people; and communicating to them in a way that persuades and motivates them.
Now, marketing has become digital and marketing departments are eBusiness organizations.
Leadership of a eBusiness organization requires someone who combines the skills of many disciplines, and I've mastered many through my diverse background. In addition to successfully leading digital organizations for over 15 years, my background as a global marketing leader gives me the consumer focus and trend spotting skills needed to keep abreast of what consumers need. My experience in product management and my time as a Business Unit Director give me the process and business discipline to ensure that digital projects remain in service to consumer and business requirements, and don’t just chase the next “shiny object.” Finally my ability to lead highly skilled, productive and agile teams successfully make me an asset to any organization wanting to take its eBusiness effots to the next level.
