I had the pleasure of working with Lucy on a project, and can attest that through her leadership, the results of the project exceeded my expectations. The project involved creating a library of documentation for our telecom vendor ordering processes. She outlined a plan, organized her team around it, provided excellent progress updates, and kept the project moving forward. The documentation was first-rate and has been invaluable to our Service Delivery organization. Lucy was proactive and also highly responsive - really a delight to partner with.
