I have been on Vikki's team for almost 10 years and I feel like the luckiest gal in Neora! It's not just her knowledge and expertise – which is top notch. It's the way she tirelessly supports everyone on her team, helping all of us achieve the potential she sees in us. We can literally ask for her help 24/7/365 and she is there for us. I have never heard her say a negative word about anything. She looks for the best in everyone and her belief in others manifests it into a reality for them. She's the leader you dream of and she has turned us into leaders, too – leading by example and inspiring us every step of the way.
I am fortunate to work under the guidance of a remarkable leader. She talks to us in a way that's real and makes us want to do our best. She cares about how we feel. When we talk, she tells me what she really thinks and listens to what I say. Seeing her work hard to achieve her goals makes me want to set my own.
She's not only my mentor but also a friend who knows how to be professional. She's great at motivating us, not just as a leader but also when she speaks. Even when I mess up, she tells me what I did wrong without being mean. Her mix of being professional and caring pushes me to do better all the time.
