Laurel's ability to attend to the micro, macro, and purpose-driven aspects of start up businesses is extraordinary. Her analysis and communication is incisive, potent, and sets the stage for intentional and generative action. In addition to her substantial expertise, she is also a lovely human being and a joy to work with.
Laurel's influence extends to imparting crucial knowledge on sales strategy, the art of building partnerships, and the importance of staying organized. I believe that anyone fortunate enough to be mentored by her in the future will undoubtedly benefit greatly from her wisdom.
Since the early days, Laurel has been offering us her calm, steady guidance. She talks with us thoughtfully, listens, and then leads us where we need to go. I could go on & on about how organized she is and how amazing it must be to live in her mind, but it is the balance of organization and design strikes me.
