When I think of a definition of leader… Jeanne comes to mind. She is not only a CEO, but a true leader that enlightened everyone’s path. She changed not only the company processes but motivated and touched everyone’s lives here. She made everyone feel heard, acknowledged, and empowered. The change was dramatic! I was amazed at how impactful the right encouragement can do to a company and everyone in it. We became our best version because of her.

Having worked with Jeanne directly, confidently say she is a results-driven yet big picture operator. Jeanne was able to navigate a tricky assignment in my organization of improving customer CX while monetizing that interaction. Her inventive solutions and steady hand on deployment helped us through a challenging transition.

Jeanne is driven, passionate and very capable. She lead the Lascom partnership across Sage to build relationships with key stakeholders, create joint pipeline opportunities and made sure that everyone involved in reselling the solution was kept updated on performance. Jeanne is a trusted ally that you can rely on and an asset to any organisation.

Focused, captivating and authoritative. These words describe Jeanne at her best — at the boardroom table. You'll follow her words, you'll connect with the "why" and then you'll hire her because you know she'll get the job done. She's an intuitive leader that turns thoughts into actions. She quickly cuts through the clutter and moves from strategy to tactics and on to results. I have nothing but the highest respect for her professional skills.

Sean YoungManaging Director at Streetscape Technologies

Jeanne, I met with Ed yesterday... he was very impressed with you and the frank feedback you provided. He is very energized and excited to work on the key areas of opportunity you identified. Ed remarked that this was the first time in twelve plus years that [he] had been exposed to this level of coaching
