Bio
Edwin Robles
I've had the fortunate opportunity to work with Megan during our time together both at Pearson and Cengage. She is a business leader with strong influence who has helped shape my career and way of thinking. Megan is passionate about the customers she serves, the teams she is on and the people she leads. Megan knows how to lead a business in addition to her functional expertise. I've always been impressed with Megan's work ethic, sense of curiosity, initiative, and desire to win. She's a great colleague who will help you, your team, and organization get better every day.

Megan and I have worked together for the last 8 years. She is a fantastic collaborator and I'm constantly impressed by her customer instincts. In the US HED edTech industry, we need to manage a complex ecosystem of stakeholders, including three sets of customers: college administrators, faculty, and students. Throughout her Marketing leadership positions, Megan has been able to accurately provide insights into how our customers would react to the decisions we make. In addition, that customer-centricity has allowed her to design and deliver an effective Marketing Strategy to enable significant digital growth for Cengage. Another quality Megan excels in is in her ability to excite a B2B2C sales organization. She does that by crafting compelling sales enablement programs and delivering them in ways sales reps can relate to. Finally, Megan has also been able to deliver significant efficiencies in the way the Marketing organization works by thinking creatively about new operating models without sacrificing effectiveness.
