We launched the product with 15 deals and grew the team to around 35 staff and 100 cross-functional contributors. Later became Verizon Location Services. To support the rapid pace of innovation, I transformed the culture with simpler processes, shorter contracts, and by creating a shared awareness of the “why” of what we were doing. I established a monthly all-hands meetings for training, brainstorming and workshops and created a diverse team with mutual trust and drive. I led groundbreaking privacy strategy research about customer expectations for data collection and sharing, working with privacy, policy and general counsel.
