I have witnessed Connie Hoover create highly functioning teams out of individuals and strategic plans out of muddled ideas more times than I can count. She simply works magic with her utterly unique enthusiasm, tireless optimism, complete dedication, and extraordinary focus. Connie is the embodiment of inspiration and will cheer-lead even the most weary of executives into a renewed sense of direction and drive to succeed. I have worked with Connie on an individual level, with my leadership team and with entire departments – she has been someone that I have relied on in every imaginable context, both in the US and overseas. She has keen observation skills that enable her to target both weaknesses and strengths and, without bias or judgement, helps others to see and to seize opportunities. I find her to be an absolutely extraordinary person with endless talent. Anyone who has the benefit of working (and playing – she makes every bit of hard work tremendous fun!) with Connie will consider themselves extremely fortunate to have had the opportunity. Thank you Connie!
