Bio
Kevin Woodcock
I had the pleasure of working with Krishna at GuideSpark. Her talent, work ethic and passion for internal communications and the betterment of employees’ lives made her highly effective. I frequently worked with Krishna on new product initiatives and saw first hand how she thoughtfully guided and influenced senior leaders of HR/People teams at some of the world’s largest brands. She took on incredibly challenging, deadline-driven projects and consistently came out on the other side with great results. Also, Krishna was a valuable source of insight and ideas for the Product leadership team, particularly using her empathetic approach to enhance the product and improve the internal communications experience for her clients. Her sincere passion for topics and initiatives, such as diversity and inclusion, is also reflected in her life inside and outside of work. I cannot recommend Krishna enough.

DoorDash is a last-mile logistics and technology company that connects people with the best of their neighborhoods across the US, Canada, Australia, Japan, and Germany. We enable local businesses to meet consumers' needs of ease and convenience, and, in turn, generate new ways for people to earn, work, and live. By way of All Hands, email, Slack, and more, I amplified stories that connected employees to DoorDash’s mission to grow and empower local economies with our values, customers, and communities at its core. I partnered with business leaders on internal communications strategies and deliverables for our: - Corporate & Finance initiatives, e.g., company All Hands, strategy and planning, earnings, M&A, international market launches, and - Customer (merchants, consumers, and Dashers) & Technology initiatives, e.g., new products and services, engineering launches, IT & security enhancements, new partnerships, marketing campaigns Having joined pre-IPO as the 2nd internal communications hire, my DoorDash journey was just a little over a year but filled with immense growth, learning, and impact to span three years!
