“Nancy is simply unique. She cares about winning in the marketplace AND about whether my team is winning over the naysayers internally. She’s got courage to tell it like it is, and compassion for how tough change can be, and conviction that she will really dig in to win.”
Val F– national investment firm
“Made one of the best tipping point presentations ever for going digital to the CEO of the Private Bank. I think she had one slide only and it said – Global citizens use the Internet. You’re late. $3 Million to prove it. 100s of decks went before me. Thank you”
Mary S- global financial services
“She teaches us to win for our consumers as if they were her best friends. She got a bunch of bankers who believe in quant decks to actually get teary eyed watching a video on our customers’ stories. A moment I’ll never forget”
Kelly P – regional retail bank
“Hired by the president but spent so much time with me during a period when I didnt know my career options”
Yardena R - national investment firm
“ A digital pioneer before her time. She convinced our CEO to take our storied magazine and put it online before the competition.”
David G – global educational children’s entertainment
“Not once in the past 17 years of working with her have I ever thought she put her interests in front of mine. In fact, sometimes I know she is taking my problems to bed with her and obsessing until she’s got me on my path. I owe a lot of my confidence to this silent producer who is always helping me.”
Karen L – retail bank
“ Many hilarious and historical moments working with her on P&G in Latin America, teaching us how to be nimble and customer centric. One time, she persuaded our 6’2” regional president to sandwich himself into her VW in Mexico City so she could show him street markets where consumers shop. Only nancy!”
Deborah K-global packaged goods
“There’s not a consumer segment that I haven’t seen her go after with full speed. But she seems to especially adore the challenges. Years ago, she worked on a lice product for us in Mexico City and urban centers where the indigent used gasoline on their children. What did she do? Launch a truck to take our product to local zocolos in Mexico City on Friday nights where locals came out to dance. She drove the truck many nights. Needless to say, we had a cult hit on our hands.”
Keith W- global pharmaceutical
“She wears this necklace that says DoGoodThings. Ask her about it. Its her brand, and she lives up to it.”
Mike P-Investment Mgt
“Give her freedoms and she finds revolutionary solutions. We did that in Mexico on our premium priced brands. First, she tells us we need everyday value pricing – about 10 years before we were ready to take that seriously. Then she takes premium floor cleaner and works with suppliers to give us refillable options, saving customers hundreds of dollars. And her creative chops rival her marketing. She created a jingle for us in Spanish that was used for a long time. Go figure – the gal from NY created a winning jingle in Spanish!”
Fernando A – global consumer package group firm
"Nancy? The anti Consultant. The rest come in with their 100 page decks of deep dives. She comes in and says it all on one slide so we all get it. If you want formulaic, don’t buy. If you want to win – sign up.”
Paul Tyler – CMO insurance icon
“ Don’t be fooled by the 100 pound, straight talking, self deprecating woman whom you meet. Underneath is a navy seal warrior, who is trained to move in and go for glory. It’s exhilarating and inspiring to watch her spread her magic on client engagements.”
Lisa T- colleague @ consulting firm
“She becomes a friend for life. We met when she was consulting for my former firm, an iconic firm for the Legal industry. Her brand/segmentation and Action Plan was still in use when I left 8 years later. We’ve been friends/colleagues now for over 15 years!”
Janet C - global legal data base
“CSuite went above & beyond when we were introducing new products & a new experience. She talked about what our consumers said and then got the gold star by giving us unfiltered perspective on how our new experience needed to connect to our Brand on multiple fronts. Courageous and inspiring!”
Susan E – global coffee company
“Discreet. Other consulting firms come in to get access to write their next book or byline in the WSJ. Nancy comes in under the radar to empower us to win. “
Brian B – global retail bank
