“Carla led the Human Resources department at Mersana during a period of substantial company growth which coincided with the COVID pandemic and its aftermath. Carla met the challenge with intentional leadership and creative problem-solving. She and her team successfully enabled effective recruitment and facilities expansion and thoughtfully refined pandemic-related policies when needed. More generally, the HR function matured under Carla’s leadership, and as an example she championed a significant expansion in executive coaching for leaders throughout the company. On an individual note, I’m grateful for Carla’s coaching and advice regarding my own career development. Carla’s initiatives will have a long-term impact at the company.”
