You know what's special about Nyla Beth? She successfully sits at the intersection of strategy and marketing communications, while never losing sight of the customer and what's at the heart of the buying decisions they make. As someone who has more than 25 years working in communications, she was one of, if not the best strategists I have worked with. She had the right combination of strategic thinking, industry and customer knowledge and intelligence when it came to putting it all together. I had the privilege of working very closely with Nyla Beth in the critical stages of our public sector strategy development, and particularly with regard to public safety, our leadership in the space, and positioning the Verizon Frontline brand and messaging at launch and in the critical first few months. She was instrumental in helping inform our marcom strategy and messaging, and I was always grateful for her input and partnership. In addition to being a whip smart strategist and really good at what she does, I was always grateful for her enthusiasm, kindness, warmth and humor. She's a gem and an outstanding addition to any team. I'd jump at the chance to work with her again anytime.

I have had the absolute honor and privilege of getting to know Nyla Beth over the past year as a co-founding member of a private, executive network, Punks & Pinstripes. Nyla Beth is engaging, insightful, inclusive, and caring. She consistently pulls everyone around her into the conversation, not only with her deeply insightful contributions, but by actively inviting folks that may be less prone to insert themselves into the conversation. She is also incredibly intelligent and well-rounded and I always leave conversations with her more knowledgeable about something. She goes deep and wide on a variety of topics, and not only do I love learning from her, but she's fun to be around. Lastly, and maybe most important, she gives a damn about others, and it shows in how she shows up every single day. She oozes authenticity and it's easy to see why she commands such a large and loyal following. I highly recommend Nyla Beth and any organization would do well to put her at the helm.

      I believe that a successful strategy doesn’t just state the destination; it charts the journey. A leader doesn’t purely follow the path, but actively aligns decisions and investments.
