Lewis Anderson, Founder & CEO, Traptic

“Amy's support was crucial for me as Founder & CEO of an early-stage startup. She helped me develop as a leader and manager and helped me navigate the uncertain, turbulent nature of an early-stage startup. 

She ran 360 reviews which were deeply enlightening, showing my strengths and opportunities as a leader, and guiding me as to how to best leverage those strengths and improve on those weaker areas. Then, on an ongoing basis, she helped to diagnose organizational dynamics within my startup and talk through the best strategies for changing them. Finally, she held me accountable for taking the challenging steps necessary to improve at the rate I wanted. That accountability kept me on track, even when the fast-paced nature of a startup made it challenging to do so, and also helped to model behavior that I used on my direct reports.

I'm grateful to have had the chance to work with Amy, and I suspect my direct reports are also grateful that I did so! I'm certain that her insight, support, and advice played a significant role in Traptic's success as we raised multiple rounds of venture funding, deployed commercial-scale strawberry picking robots, and ultimately got acquired.”
