Linda’s
outstanding contributions [as our “success architect” and program manager] were integral to the success of Xerox Canada’s
2004 Sarbanes-Oxley compliance.
She is extremely talented and adept at integrating her vast skills and knowledge to
address the task at hand. Throughout the project, Linda willingly accepted ownership of any activity and ensured its successful
completion. (If you want something done, give it to Linda!) There is no assignment she cannot tackle.

a welcome addition to any work team. She consistently displays exceptional management and project management skills and is
always extremely positive and supportive in all interactions.
Her work is always extremely thorough and well organized.
I am also impressed with her exceptional communication and presentation skills and ability to continually learn and
stay current with workplace effectiveness and management trends.

As a project
manager, Linda is a visionary; she is also extremely organized. Her ability to envision the highest level of success and deliver
that vision sets her apart from others.
Recommendations and strategies she presented to our Executive Team resulted
in developing systems, services, and programs (subsequently designed and implemented by our management teams under her direction)
that saved our company in excess of $10M and continue to bring considerable efficiencies to the business.
Linda is
a valuable resource (with high ethics and standards) committed to sharing her knowledge and helping others achieve their potential.
Liz Rogers, PMP, Manager, Finance - Business Services, GlaxoSmithKline

An exceptional
Project Manager, Linda has extensive knowledge in a wide variety of management techniques and expertise in multiple professional
disciplines, as well as remarkable business acumen. She also has the unique ability to envision superior success as the only
possible outcome and then take the necessary steps to fully deliver that success.
Canada’s [Sarbanes-Oxley] compliance
was achieved largely due to Linda’s communication and negotiation skills, her methods and techniques for group and stakeholder
management, and her ability to direct, support, and inspire others. Linda is an absolute pleasure to work with and I sincerely
hope I will have the opportunity to do so again in future.
