Corporate Sustainability Expert

I was fortunate to have Nathalie as my coach in 2015 and was thoroughly impressed with her knowledge and technique. I was in the process of transferring from an Executive Assistant to Chief of Staff at Linkedin. Nathalie was very honest with me about my shortcomings and the challenges that would come with this change--I appreciate Nathalie's honesty and open communication style. I always felt like Nathalie was on my team and she helped to build my confidence tremendously. I definitely am a different professional (in so many positive ways) after working with Nathalie. I would recommend her to anyone in a similar situation.

Murex participants were delighted by the outstanding positive energy distilled by Nathalie during the 5-day agile project management workshops. Her ability to deliver best practices messages through interactivity, transformed sessions into an unforgettable learning experience.

Nathalie Udo has been an instrumental talent for the success of our organization, not only as our vice chair and board member but as the fearless leader of our development committee. Her professionalism, integrity, enthusiasm, organizational skills, and strategic development planning are beyond everything we could possibly imagine to find in one person. Her expertise particularly shone in a partner summit that we held last year. Nathalie prepared the facilitation, moderation, and report for the summit in an impeccable format and in record time. I highly endorse and recommend Nathalie for any strategic development, coaching, planning, and project management endeavors. We feel anyone would be tremendously lucky to benefit from her services and skills.

Nathalie is a fantastic and proven program director. She is knowledgeable of the principles of program management and has that special sense to know where to look for issues and will dig until she uncovers the source of the problem. She has a calm approach to problems and she is a driver for results. She frames issues and risks so executives can make clear decisions. And to top it off: she is a pleasure to work with!

Nathalie brings focus and clarity to a team, a project, an organization. She is experienced and skilled at working with a team at any level and helping them develop a strategy and a plan for focusing on the right priorities and moving forward toward both short-term delivery and long-term strategy. I have worked with her in several settings and multiple companies and she has always been successful at bringing focus and strategy and enabling a team to execute.

Nathalie is an exceptionally talented person whose expertise in all levels of project management (Portfolio, Program and Project) allows her to effectively deliver even on troubled projects. As a consultant, her strong facilitation and leadership skills make her an invaluable asset to any company requiring training, methodology or project rescue.

I've partnered with Nathalie on complex consulting projects for years, and I know from personal experience how extremely effective she is in a wide range of professional environments. While her ability to create viable strategies and plans is impressive, what's most valuable to our clients is her skillful group facilitation amidst even difficult circumstances as well as her track record of delivering results without fail. What's the secret to her ability to repeatedly deliver results? A rare combination of sharp intellect, exceptional human skills, and the discipline to do what's required - and to get others to follow suit.

Nathalie provided expert leadership at ITHAKA for approximately two years. She was the overall project manager for a massive effort to rebuild the JSTOR technological infrastructure from the bottom up, the most significant project our organization has ever undertaken. This effort required disciplined coordination, oversight, and effective communication during a transition from a waterfall to agile product development methodology. When nearing the absolute deadline for switching off the existing infrastructure, hours were long and tempers were short, but Nathalie’s steady leadership was invaluable to completing the project on time, which we successfully did. Nathalie’s value to the project can be defined very simply — we would not have completed it without her. If you have an important project and want to ensure that it gets completed successfully with a limited amount of drama, hire Nathalie.
