Bio
Dmitri Kazanski
I worked with Pam for eight years while she was the CEO at Manta. Even though I didn’t report into Pam directly, I had the chance to interact with her on a frequent basis. Pam took over a small unprofitable startup known as ECNext and transformed it into the successful organization we now know as Manta. While the growth of the company during Pam’s tenure was impressive, the underlying cultural transformation was equally remarkable. She emphasized the importance of core values, shared vision, discipline, cooperation and talent development. A quintessential "level 5" leader, Pam led by example with passion and fortitude, while demonstrating personal humility. She exhibited genuine empathy and care towards the needs of her employees. Yet, at the same time, she would not hesitate to make tough choices when necessary. Pam helped me with a lot of guidance on difficult management challenges, which influenced my career and will serve me for years to come.

Pam is an exceptional leader and executive. Her drive and determination are unmatched, as evidenced by her success. During our professional relationship that spanned over two companies, Pam taught me that success does not come at the sacrifice of principles, rather success is because of an individual's principles and character. Pam's leadership created an exciting work environment. She shared her knowledge and expertise with her team and her customers. One of Pam's greatest assests is her ability to create a strategy, align her team, and most importantly, successfully execute that strategy.
