“I have had the pleasure of working side-by-side with Angi in several different assignments at General Mills. I cannot underscore how valuable her skills are in the era of Matrixed and Networked organizations. Angi has a towering strength for creating and clarifying process that drive strategic clarity and resource prioritization. Angi has an endless source of energy even when facing the most daunting business conditions. She is a true asset in this era of business model disruption. ”
