About Valerie S. Hart
Most of my career has focused on growth, first as a leader of marketing and sales functions in telecommunications and financial services industries, and now as a management consultant. I now work with the growth and operating teams at client firms which seek to transform their businesses to meet competitive challenges and opportunities. In my approach to any transformation challenge, be it strategic planning, technological, operations or business process improvements, I emphasize how these changes and initiatives support and link to the enterprise vision and strategies for growth and scale. My industry experience spans automotive manufacturing and services, last-mile consumer service businesses, online services platforms and financial services in multiple functional areas, including human capital, network infrastructure and security, product development, and marketing / sales. Prior to Ankura, I operated my own consulting firm specializing in service businesses and focusing on growth strategies including sales and marketing process optimization. https://ankura.com/experts-and-advisors/valerie-hart
