“I had the pleasure of working with Jeannette who was a key member of my leadership team, when I was the Chief Supply Chain Officer at Ann Inc. Through Jeannette's deep and trusting relationships with her cross functional partners, global team, and vendor community, she was able to achieve extraordinary results. In particular, Jeannette was the architect of our breakthrough 100,000 Women commitment, which targeted empowering the women in our global supply chain over 5 years. I can truly say that Jeannette was an inspiration to the entire team, and consistently over delivered on her goals - which is a testament to her creativity, passion and drive. Jeannette is a consummate professional and engaging leader, with the highest level of integrity. I feel lucky to have worked with Jeannette, and hold her in extremely high regard. I have optimistic predictions for her future! ”
