The Who are you Going to Be workshop has been phenomenal. Thank you for providing me the keys to see who I truly am!

Emmanuell Sevieux, Tech leader
I’ve worked with Gilli directly and as our head of PMO, can say she has the qualities of a leader that can transform organizations: she brings energy, vision, and analyzes the problem and tackles it head on. She is a hands on leader and strong on getting things done and showing results and making impact.

Gilli is a fantastic leader in coordinating and coaching cross-functional teams to work together better. In addition, she's an astounding advocate for the Agile/Scrum development process. I enjoyed working with her at me at IAM+.

Senior Design Manager at Walmart
Gilli joined Appetize at a critical time in our growth, and immediately started taming our chaos. We wouldn't be able to maintain our trajectory without her leadership, and the process improvement that she's introduced. I appreciate her partnership, and can't overstate the positive impact she's made here.
Jay Dorman
Head Of Technology at SKU IQ
Gilli is an outstanding product manager and project lead that easily moves between operational, business and tech-ops worlds while also being a team player and a pleasure to work with. Gilli shines brightly in the areas of internal communications, complex problem solving and working well with Partners/External executive presentations. In my time working with her, I was an internal "customer" of her work and depended on her hitting deadlines for my external clients. I could always count on her to be clear, concise and complete.

What can you say about Gilli that isn't readily apparent the moment you meet her? Nothing really, because it's all right there. Gilli is a force of nature - responsible, accountable, trust worthy and team-oriented. I valued each and every day I got to roll up my sleeves with Gilli and always knew that I had the best possible teammate and partner I could ask for as long as she was there.
Toby Blue
Investor, Co-Founder and Partner at 19Y Ventures (worked with Gilli at i.am+)
I've got structure to my career: Stepping stones i need to achieve and Gilli has been very helpful to provide this guidance to my career path. I've created an event and a whole production within our time working together, and also building my brand.

Gilli's resources have helped me to develop my business foundation and create a business and marketing plan to grow it. She has a unique ability to listen and be able to hone in on where she can direct me to resources she has available.... Gilli is a master at Time Management.... She is a no-nonsense, hard working coach, who lives by her word and has proven her techniques successful. She is inspirational not only with how she has created and modeled her entrepreneurial business but also how she generously shares her information with others. She is a wealth of information and literally has everything at her fingertips (a few key strokes away). Gilli has been a great support. I consider myself an entrepreneur working for myself and by myself, I think of her as my supervisor that I can go to for questions and feedback, which makes the task less overwhelming.

Gilli helps you to develop a practical and comprehensive logistical plan to marketing your idea. However her real power lies in delving into your attitudes, belief systems and ultimate dreams in life which will ultimately decide the success or failure of your efforts. While I am often overwhelmed by the obstacles of this business, each coaching session with Gilli renews my positive attitude and empowers me to continue to move forward. While many times I begin my coaching session feeling lost, Gilli makes it possible for me to find my sense of purpose again and feel the joy in the process of making and marketing my music. She provides an invaluable service to the independent entrepreneur. She understands the process, the challenges, and the attitudes one must have in order to thrive in this pursuit. She is a great sounding board and guide!

My life and art were out of control and Gilli intuitively tailored our sessions to help me move forward. Her strength and inspiration are amazing. She is a coach that takes care of business and that ain’t no lie. She knows what needs to be done and how to remain empowered while you are doing it. I look forward to working with Gilli again and I would work with Gilli anytime, in a heartbeat. Why suffer? It doesn’t get any better than this!

Amazing, energetic and dynamic are the words I would use to describe Gilli. She is one of the best leaders I have worked with before and It is a pleasure to have her as a leader in the Geo PMO org. She is an excellent people manager and mentor; I am particularly impressed with her in-depth understanding of program management and agile methodologies, and her ability to implement them on a large scale to realise value immediately. Gilli has kept collaboration as a cornerstone of her leadership style which reflects in her communication and implementation strategy for Geo teams. She is a brilliant leader who possesses an incredible ability to create a significant and lasting impact in a short time.
