With 6 years in management and 17 years in industry, I lead through people, coaching them to overcome obstacles, intervene when I must. I balance selectively shielding teams while providing them with the right amount of challenge. Unite people around a shared objective, identifying both collective and personal motivators to galvanize the team towards a common goal. Bring in demonstrated experience of a successful management of a cross-functional org. Remote-first management, foster culture of written communication and autonomous teams.
