I've had the opportunity to work with Maura on multiple occasions over the past two years as both a participant, and now leader of the Clorox internal idea competition, Innovent, which has delivered tens of millions of dollars to CLX's topline. Now finishing it's 6th year, Maura's been an integral part of this process since close to the beginning. She's provided structure to the program curriculum, while also encouraging participants to think a bit differently. Her support and sage wisdom have made this program tops, and I continue to look forward to working with her to grow the program and expand it's impact! "Champion Your Bold Idea!"

Simply put, Maura is one of my favorite people to work with, and enjoys a spot on a very short list of my "go to" individuals. For me, that list is made up of people who excel in their area of expertise, operate with high levels of integrity, show continuous development, and have an intangible quality that draws you to them. Maura is like business in fast forward. She operates incredibly quickly, and can process information at light speed. But, more importantly, she can back it up. Her combination of small company guerrilla marketing, multinational scope and discipline, and uncanny intuitiveness make her a rare find. She actually knows what she is talking about! Maura operates with a passion and enthusiasm that is contagious... translating wonderfully in her ability to lead and mentor, whether in groups or one on one. I consider her a colleague and a mentor, and one of the great finds in my career. I can't wait to find my next opportunity to do business with her.
