“I was lucky to work with Marina as a Business Analyst developing a technically challenging and innovative product. Marina’s project management skills are extremely well developed and also creatively unique. She was able to tailor all processes for the company environment and successfully managed a very diverse, globally distributed remote team. Marina is a great servant leader. She creates a very friendly environment where the development team feels that they are heard and appreciated. She motivates a team and is always fully invested in making sure the developers have clear tasks and timelines. A quality that makes her exceptional when it comes to stakeholders management is that she “goes the extra mile” for them. I’ve watched her expertly and successfully manage challenging situations with stakeholders and their competing requests. Her conflict resolution and problem-solving skills are great. She can successfully maintain the communication loop between the stakeholders and the development team. Marina has extraordinary communication skills and an intense work ethic. I would highly recommend her to any organization for a leadership position!”
