Building a New Team? Want to Create a Great Culture?

Over the past 10 years, I've both built and managed multiple teams. Team Culture plays a critical part of whether or not folks are happy - which results in that all important high performing team. I can help you work through the best way to create an amazing team culture tailored for your particular circumstance.

Having Performance Challenges With an Individual on Your Team?

I have a proven track record of taking challenging situations with employees (and managers), and turning them around. Remember, there are always multiple potential outcomes and approaches to each situation, but the key is empathy and transparency at all stages of the engagement. I strongly believe that it's possible to have positive outcomes both for the employee and employer in every situation. Let's do it together!

Do You Have a Team That Just Isn't Performing Well?

I've taken on multiple challenging teams over the years. Teams that just don't gel. Teams that don't have a clear mission. Teams that don't meet their targets. Teams that are the complainers of the organization. Teams that are really just a collective of individuals. My expertise is to help them be part of the solution and help them take on a journey together. They will acknowledge the past, gain control of the present and forge a successful path to the future. It's a tried and tested approach that works in multiple situations. Let me share my experiences with you.

Clair was a senior manager on my staff for several years here at Microsoft - leading multi-year mission critical projects with more than a dozen key partners, rebuilding internal relationships, optimizing processes, clearing roadblocks and actively growing her teams skills and capabilities. Clair just flat-out gets results and in a way that forges real investment from partners, contributors and peers.

While I could go on and on about Clair's mad crazy skills - I would sum up how I feel about Clair with this: She's so good, I would work for her any day of the week.

While Clair certainly has strong skills and experience in developing and delivering valuable projects, her "special sauce" is her exceptional ability to obtain enthusiastic support from partners, stakeholders, and individual contributors. She always seems to align people with the right role on the most necessary aspects of a project or program, and therefore usually achieves fantastic results.

Clair has been extremely organized and professional in all of our interactions. She and I meet on a weekly basis via the SMSGR weekly phone conference and she is never at a loss for answers. I am looking forward to working with her more this year and hope to work with her well into the future!

I worked with Clair in the SMSG Readiness learning organization at Microsoft and know her to be resourceful, intelligent and dedicated to her customer's needs. Clair is respectful of differences and great at creating agreement and progress during challenging situations. Clair is a fun and supportive teammate and I can only hope to get to work with her again in the future.
