I got to know Shawn while working at North Shore Credit Union on the banking system conversion project. Shawn managed a group of trainers whom I worked quite closely with in the final stages of the project. I was impressed with the way Shawn managed and supported her staff. She rolled up her sleeves and dug right in to help when the project deadlines were looming and there was still so many branch staff to train. She cares for her staff a great deal and is the kind of manager that they feel very comfortable going to for direction and advice. Shawn is very bright, poised and professional. I feel she is a tremendous asset to the HR department of North Shore Credit Union - and she was definitely a very helpful and valuable resource during the project.

Shawn is a talented organizational development professional. She has the ability and expertise to turn conceptual requests and ideas into project and action plans - and get things done. Her knowledge and contacts in the OD arena are vast and have provided NSCU with the OD bench strength needed to help ensure our success.
