Collaboration
"One of my key aims was to have an outside perspective to help drive teamwork and collaboration and really dig into the lowest level of details on how we prioritize, work together, and collectively align. Michelle came in and did just that and more."
Tom Knight, Manager Strategy and Operations, DoorDash Canada

Tough Conversations
"Michelle impressed me with the ability to bring peace and order in crucial conversations. She had a strong strategic view on incoming projects and guided us on priorities and expected results. Michelle synthesized broad information, created a culture of curiosity, and connected the dots in novel ways."
