What is a typical day at Cygnal like for you?
Mondays are full of internal meetings with managers to ensure everyone is on the same page and to talk through priorities for the week
Fridays are full of team meetings and administrative items
Tuesday – Thursday are my proactive business outreach days (external meetings) and strategic thinking/planning
Who is someone you admire?
My father … he works hard, keeps a low profile, and does not need praise.
Skip Thompson – CEO of the bank I worked for early in my career that gave the faith, family, work advice.
Mark Platt – CEO of medical practices … love his approach and perspective on life in general.
Don’t admire many of the successful business people we all see b/c they often achieve their success to the detriment of their families.
What problem do you consistently solve for your clients?
Getting them the answers they need … I am all about partnerships and NOT projects … I will work tirelessly to ensure you receive the clarity you desire.
