Bio
Jonny Vu
Zack and I worked together on numerous occasions, and I found him to be informed, empathetic, and ready to deliver impactful contributions. He could see the big picture and be strategic while still rolling up his sleeves when needed and being tactical. Zack excelled at connecting people throughout the organization and helped mentor so many colleagues. I couldn't recommend Zack more.

While at McKinsey, any consultant would be lucky to call Zack their Professional Development (PD) Manager. Zack is a caring people leader, trust-based counselor, and thoughtful problem solver. His strengths are grounded on a foundation as a collaborative, calm, passion-driven colleague. Some notable strengths that I observed in my 2 years managing and working with Zack include: +Caring people leader: Zack created a positive and healthy environment for our PD team and your consultants to thrive. He regularly stepped up to apprentice newer PD colleagues through individual coaching and mentorship sessions above and beyond the scope of his role. +Trust-based counselor to consultants and client teams: He built authentic relationships to counsel our colleagues within and beyond staffing interactions. He established a relationship with others deeply rooted in trust and has demonstrated an ability to understand and empathize in each interaction. +Effective problem solver: He pushed on value-add problem solving time to contribute to effective outcomes across all facets of the role. +Compelling communicator: He has a knack for top-down, concise, and compelling communications that further propels his problem solving and counseling strengths. While demonstrating all of these strengths, Zack managed to maintain a sense of calm and resilience through tricky situations (e.g., organizational change, team dynamics, staffing demands, etc.). He is a passion-driven colleague that truly cares about the work he does on a daily basis. I was lucky to work with and learn from him.
