For both of Heather's teams, she crafted a true strategic vision. As we worked together on a shared strategy, she kept us on track by working on strategic statements rather than implementation goals. She is just a natural. Her strategic vision was reviewed and approved by the CEO.
The most impressive thing about Heather isn't her technical insight or ability to craft brilliant strategies. It is how she is fully invested in her team's success. Whether delivering hard news for missed performance goals or fighting for those who deserve recognition, she approaches every situation with mindful intention. I often leaned on her judgment in challenging conditions. Her teams show a dedication and loyalty that is second to none.
