Bio
Ken Paynter ✈
I've known and worked with Tracie for almost 15 years. She's a fantastic colleague and friend. Generally speaking, she's widely regarded as proactive, leading, HARD WORKING, reliable, and enjoyable to be around. I think of her as a "get it done" person. You can basically throw her into a project or strategic initiative with zero requirements. She will dig in, figure it out, and deliver the results you need. She's great at leading others, and people rally around her. It's no doubt in my mind that she was the critical linchpin within our organization in successfully building a new division that faced various "bumps" in the road due to a number of environmental factors - all of which she was able to steer the division through to make it a success. She's great at both managing internal business relationships (colleagues, departments, leadership, etc.) as well as clients. Quite frankly, clients love her. She's just a natural relationship person and does great in account management and business development - in addition to her project management expertise. Tracie also volunteers her personal time for extracurricular company initiatives - participating in philanthropic programs and sitting on the board of a major industry association. In addition, Tracie is the type of person who is always eager to learn and practice self improvement. She's constantly reading books, participating in online training, and doing things to continually make her the best version of her. These LinkedIn recommendations are always just snapshots in time; however, because I have worked with her for nearly 15 years, I think my assessment is accurate now and will continue to be into the future. If you're reading this in 2020 (the worst year ever) or 2040 and she is seeking employment with you, you should definitely give her a close look. Feel free to contact me as an official reference.
