I have worked with Debbie Plager for more than 5 years, and can say without hesitation
that she is the most talented, multi-dimensional leadership and business consulting professional
with whom I worked in my forty-two year career. I was particularly impressed with the speed and
accuracy of her ability to assess the strengths and shortcomings of a team as a collective, as well
as their individual leaders and members.
Debbie worked with my senior leadership team on a wide range of business and people issues:
from helping to develop a new strategic blueprint for our Audit function (one that completely
changed the methodology, tools, business relationship management, and talent for our organization).
She drove a framework for talent evaluation and enhancement to increase performance and impact.
She coached leaders and employees whose personal style and lack of trust impeded their effectiveness.
Debbie has very strong and broad business judgment and skills and was a full-fledged member of
our leadership team. In addition, Debbie was a valued business advisor to me in my leadership role.
Debbie is extremely knowledgeable, insightful, fearless in raising the “elephants in the room”.
She is one of the quickest learners with whom I have worked. She is strategic, creative,
and a strong listener, negotiator, and partner in accomplishing critical business objectives, and
will provide significant value and impact to any business with whom she works.
