“Kathy is simply just "one of the best"! She is the ultimate technology professional; industrious, collaborative, honest, communicative, accountable and results driven. Kathy's channel experience of creating, building and maintaining critical business relationships at executive management levels down to the shipping dock staff is one of her highlighted talents. Kathy managed a team of talented sales and marketing staff that helped drive our large year-over-year growth objectives. She achieved or over achieved her assigned revenue and budget assignments ten of her ten years at Bell & Howell. Kathy has a strong overall business acumen and understands both the business needs of the channel partners as well as the needs of a vendor. She is financially accountable and successfully managed a million dollar plus marketing fund. Working closely with her team, she researched, created and executed numerous channel programs to increase sales, leveraged channel partners' strengths and opened new markets for our products and services. Kathy was a key contributor to developing underperforming markets and VAR network. Kathy has a unique ability to handle difficult situations. She uses rare listening skills, solid business arguments and well-timed humor to maximize a positive outcome. She first fosters great personal and business relationships and then works effectively with those individuals to find solutions to their business problems and challenges. Kathy has developed her complex technical expertise immensely during her contributions at Bell & Howell and since then as well. I can highly recommend Kathy. I would certainly hire her back and perhaps a larger compliment would be that I would work for Kathy at any time. She is a leader, a great manager and an all-star performer. Russell S. Hunt President Bell & Howell ”
