I’m on the hunt for my next role in product management (Senior Product Manager and above), as a Chief of Staff, Entrepreneur in Residence, or as a hybrid product + program manager (W-2 or long-term contract)! Many-hats-wearing, hard-to-define, unicorn roles are my favorites. (Please scroll down to the bottom to get to my resumes.)
What I promise to you is:
- I’m an insatiably curious, heart-centered, value-delivering, data-led, creative, and entrepreneurial technologist with strong emotional intelligence
- Who is obsessed with creating meaningful, magical customer, user, employee, student, constituent, developer, and team mate experiences
- isn’t afraid to say the hard things compassionately
- has an abundance and continuous learning mindset
- has a couple of decades of influencing without authority
- With core values of integrity, transparency, and kindness
What I ask for is:
- You prioritize
- and fund justice, equity, diversity, inclusion and belonging
- psychological safety
- sustainability
- reproductive and mental health care
- autonomy
- transparency (salary + organizational)
- flexibility
- People, purpose, and planet guide you over profit. By honoring the first three, profit and financial viability are still attainable.
- You don’t shy away from hard conversations. No bullies allowed.
- You’ve operationalized learning
- You listen to introverts, too
- Competitive salary and benefits
- You’re super intentional about hiring. And your most senior executives would take pay cuts before you’d lay your people off en-masse. Layoffs are absolutely a last resort in your minds and not a BAU measure b/c you’ve overhired.
- You accept that and encourage some of your greatest employees have side projects, businesses, and passions. As long as they don’t pose a conflict of interest for your company, you recognize that such projects can help those employees build valuable skills that benefit you, too.
- The ability to continue working fully remotely (now in my 9th year and can travel ocasionally, as needed!)
