Bonnie has a deep respect for people, is creative and fun, results driven, inquisitive (thoughtful and reflective), and has a true ability to inspire others to think, work and lead differently. Teams lead by Bonnie typically accomplish more than teams with double the resources, mostly due to her leadership style, her ability to bring out the best in others, and how she consistently models an optimal balance of results and relationships.
