“I have worked with Carol for ten years in three different organizations. She is on the top of my list of talented operations executives who I know will drive company transformation through deep strategic execution. Her ability to listen deeply, connect dots, and organize the work and the teams to drive output that moves organizations forward and impacts KPIs is unparalleled. Carol is a savvy business leader who helps teams sift through the noise and get to the most important initiatives that drive growth and EBITDA.”
