Doug is a natural leader, looked to for guidance by his peers as well as by members of his staff. He is valued by colleagues and regularly praised by senior management for his success in driving large-scale, complex marketing programs that always bring strong results.

Doug blends business strategy and creative vision across the marketing discipline. He led a team I joined, including product managers and creative directors, to reinvigorate Thomson Financial's global brand identity. Doug guided us from first brainstorm and brand definition to concepts, approvals and two rounds of successful executions. He naturally puts everyone nearby at ease, and motivates people on his team to perform their very best, based on his domain expertise, clarity of vision and great sense of humor.

Doug has demonstrated versatility and stick-to-it-iveness in a challenging business environment. He consistently produces larger than life programs from annual sales conferences for casts of 1000s, with a few demanding executives in the spotlight, to encyclopedic websites, and collateral programs. His teams love working for him. Doug is an amazing spirit in a business usually devoid of such. I recommend him highly to anyone who needs a major talent and force to come in and take over to build something great. He deserves something great.

I learned a great deal from Douglas in such a short space of time. His natural professionalism and intelligent acumen make him a respectable, authoritative, yet joyfully entertaining manager. I can think of no one better to expertly implement and leverage a global brand like Thomson Reuters.
