Anita is a highly energetic visionary leader in both the education world and the business world. She has a keen eye for integrating the evolving education dynamics, business trends and government policy into value added action (What should we do next!). I love the fact that she actively seeks higher levels of achievement not only for herself, but everyone around her (she sets the bar high).

I had the pleasure of working with Anita at Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. Most recently, we worked together on the Leadership Task Force, a strategic committee for a few senior managers in our division. Anita is a quick thinker, and has strong insights into the market in general, our customers, and the internal pulse of the organization. Anita brought a true spirit of innovation combined with pragmatism to her work on the committee. Anita & I worked closely together planning the Management Committee Meeting to discuss and demonstrate the recommendations of the task force. Her creativity and attention to detail for all the logistics of the meeting made it a huge success and put the division on the road to change. I've also seen how Anita has a strong understanding of the kinds of communications that work with customers and with internal staff. She demonstrates a great deal of care in advocating for the internal staff so they understand the "why's" of decisions, not just the "what's". Finally, I've seen Anita work as an ambassador of the company, forging new relationships with organizations and thought leaders. Their respect for her is a testimony to her capabilities.
