We worked on programs that were the first kind in our field. As innovative and expensive programs, they were especially challenging to gain acceptance and implement on such a large scale within the company. Michelle’s exceptional communication and negotiation skills enabled her to deliver cross-functional value, and align special interests with decision makers in marketing, trade, agency, and vendor constituents. She handled complicated and stressful situations with grace and ease. She was diligent in her communication, incorporating feedback, and adapting accordingly…She is someone I lean on for solid, objective, and insightful advice…She is a seasoned executive with tremendous life experience, creative intelligence, excellent interpersonal skills, and a sincere interest in helping others. These qualities, and her other unique attributes, such as her unwavering optimistic and positive outlook, set Michelle apart in a crowd.
