She succeeded on all fronts. In particular Kathy maintained an exceptional relationship with the sales team and earned the trust and respect of her inherited marketing team.

In a very competitive, challenging market Kathy was able to draw a significant amount of attention to our company and its products. Many of the awards and recognition bestowed on us was the direct result of Kathy's efforts. She is also an expert in developing and maintaining great relationships with key research analysts. When I first met Kathy in an interview, it took me all of about 10 minutes to determine she was the best candidate. For the next four years we enjoyed many good times (some bad), but Kathy always maintained a bright outlook and performed her job superbly, whether she contributed work as an individual, managed her team to a goal, or coordinated a cross-functional group.”
