See what others are saying about Stacy's transformative leadership approach.
"I had known Stacy for almost two years. Stacy is one of those HR professionals that are really a business partner. Strategic and pragmatic to be able to get things done in the correct way. Knows people and behavior so helps to be ahead of the curve in most situations or manage them if the need arises. "
"I was BP Lead Poland when Stacy joined Minova in 2015 and become Head of Global Human resource for Minova. She visited Poland in 2016 so I had a great opportunity to meet her personally. She is a unique person and outstanding leader. She creates a contagious atmosphere of success, makes you believe that nothing is impossible. We often worked under a pressure of time and she managed it perfectly. Her knowledge and skill level goes beyond the standard in this position. Stacy is a True Leader who communicate her values openly with the people she leads, creating an atmosphere of certainty and trust. Despite that she leads me only for over one year, she will remain my source of inspiration."
"I was immediately impressed with Stacys' enthusiasm, professionalism, technical competency, and sincerity during her initial round of interviews with Weir. But it was how fast and accurately she was able to size up the range and depth of strategic issues facing the company that really impressed me shortly after she came aboard the company. Having worked with many HR professionals over the years, very few possess the perspective, pragmatism, and ability to get things done that Stacy does. I attribute her unique and refreshing combination of skills to the simple fact that Stacy knows her stuff. She worked her way up from the shop floor, she does her homework, she asks the right questions, she leads from the front, and she is a good coach and mentor, up and down the organization. I hope to have the opportunity to work with her again someday."
"Stacy has been an excellent business partner to the North American team at Orica. It is very rare to find an HR leader who is in tune with business needs and challenges, and is more about finding creative solutions rather than flashing policy manuals.
Stacy is more of a business leader who happens to wear HR hat. She actively participates in business review meetings and strategy sessions. From these sessions, she gets a first hand understanding of HR needs and requirements. Stacy is more about finding solutions in a cost effective and responsible manner to help business grow. She will be a wonderful addition to any leadership team."
"I had the opportunity and privilege to work directly with Stacy and to observe her leadership ability to bring a new level of HR professionalism into our business. Her passion to develop and lead constructive change management as well as her open and communicative style allowed her to quickly gain the respect of the leadership team. She is a rare HR professional that really understands the importance of being a true business partner to all levels of the organization and was instrumental in shaping positive changes within the organization. Stacy holds herself and her team accountable to ensure the highest level of integrity and ethics are adhered to so that associates feel their opinions and feedback are valued. She is a strong and impactful HR leader and functions as a real advocate for the entire organization. She has the ability to quickly assess issues and challenges facing an organization and works well with all levels of the organization to create a solution. I highly endorse Stacy as an exceptional HR leader and business partner that any organization would benefit from having on their leadership team."

"During Stacy’s tenure as Vice President of Global Human Resources, I was a direct report from the UK office. Under Stacy’s management it became apparent that her strategic vision allied to her tenacity, corporate ability and drive, developed Trilliums HR division as well as a cohesive global team. She was inspirational in supporting myself and the team to achieve not only our business, but personal goals and objectives. She is dedicated to her craft as well as continued innovation in the HR discipline."
