"Great leaders don't want to manage. They aim to inspire people to challenge what's possible.

My Leadership Style: 

• As a progressive leader, I aim to inspire through CONSCIOUSNESS, EMPATHY, INTEGRITY and ACCOUNTABILITY

• I'm mindful of how I show up and behave; aware of my own autopilot responses and lead by example

• I'm attracted to fresh thinking and approaches; true believer that diverse teams create the best ideas

• I'm driven by successful collaboration to help us maximize credibility, relationships and impact

• I create the right mental conditions during team interactions, meetings and conversations

• I'm most excited by watching my team members go off and become leaders themselves

• UPS: led a team of seven, international marketers; established a forward-looking culture

• Google: led a team of seven, YouTube B2B marketers; coached for high-performance 

• WarnerMedia: led a team of fifteen marketers; championed career development

• Viacom: led a team of four marketers; supported cross-functional collaboration

• We'll work together to bring order to chaos and we'll Push. The. Boundaries.

" To see him in action in a roomful of clients is like watching a master painter at work...provides an unparalleled level of expertise on the media/streaming/TV space... As a manager, he was supportive, yet gave just the right amount of autonomy, and his permission to experiment (and sometimes fail!). André is a pleasure to work for and to work with, to learn from and to teach, and I cannot recommend him enough."

"André is the rare professional who is consistently both a pleasure to work for and highly effective. As a colleague, our conversations would lead me to find better ways to think about my own work. As a manager, he was an even-keeled, problem solver who naturally motivated his team to excel at their jobs. I look forward to working with André again."
