My story
In 2001, the BBC in London recognized the need to build a Product Management mindset across the News and Sport Online team. The real time feedback from visitor data was driving a sea change in their understanding of the speed needed to build - and iterate online experiences.
Marty Cagan consulted with our leadership and trained our group to shift our thinking in approaching software product development. It was a pivotal moment for me early on in my career, and with Marty’s encouragement, I have continued to learn through leading Product teams across a range of industries and organization types with their unique challenges.
Industry sectors:
Ecommerce {Gilt}
SaaS {Ghost Kitchen/Delivery for the Hospitality Industry and UGC Video marketplaces for media and advertising}
Fintech {Payment faciliator and Loyalty scheme for Revance Therapeutics, Digital wallet for leading Mexican retailer}
Media {BBC News Syndication, The Guardian, NewsGroupNewspapers, Chartbeat}
BioTech {Allergan, Revance}
Each industry has given me unique exposure to the challenges facing startups, internal innovation groups within the Corporate enviornment, and large process-lead matrix organizations.
Shall we schedule time to talk?
I offer initial consultations to make a connection and discuss your situation.
