Bio
Dax Aiken
Shannon is one of the most professional recruiters I have come across in my search for new roles. The attention to detail, the constant feedback, the preparatory work and the follow up are all first class. She is thorough and meticulous and has the needs of both the client and candidate at heart in all that she does. I have no hesitation in recommending her.
Herve Camus-Haessler
I had the opportunity to partner with Shannon on a rather unique project, at the intersection of several market segments such as Technology and Healthcare. I already knew that she was very knowledgeable about Consumer businesses, but I was impressed by how she quickly deep dived into unfamiliar territory in order to act as a true trusted advisor to her demanding client. She was able to articulate an ambitious vision based not only on incremental improvements, but instead reconsidering current approaches in order to innovate at scale for meaningful and lasting impact, accelerating innovation with moonshots, ambitious, long-term and ground-breaking innovation initiatives. Integrating nutrition & life sciences, genomic science and the internet of things to build a new ecosystem of connected solutions. In addition to that, Shannon demonstrated a rather rare level of maturity, and great project follow-up. Engaging personality, inquisitive mind: Highly recommended for your Talent and Management Consulting needs.
