Jennifer Wilder

“Where does one begin when writing a letter to absolutely recommend Jen Wilder for any role that seeks steadfast leadership and dedication, all while remaining down to earth. As a former employee under Jen's guidance, I can easily say that she is by far the best manager I have had the pleasure of working with. I had the privilege of working under Jen for 4 years at Viasat Inc. However, I was one of the seasoned NOC technicians who would welcome her to the Viasat family. It quickly became apparent that her talents would be better suited for our upper-tier teams. Not long after she joined the NOC would she be picked up by our Tier 3 team where she would continue to exhibit remarkable leadership qualities. One of what I would consider to be the most important traits that set Jen apart was her innate ability to communicate well with a diverse range of people. When I finally earned a spot on her team, I was still relatively green in the RF space and she had always taken the time to simplify complex technologies into a clear and concise picture - this translated well into our team goals ensuring that each team member understood their roles and responsibilities thoroughly. Additionally, she always took into consideration each team members strengths and weaknesses in order to quickly devise plans of action. She leveraged this knowledge to delegate tasks wisely, enabling us to not only maximize our potential and achieve remarkable results, but to also challenge each other fostering growth as a cohesive unit. Her constructive feedback and unwavering support motivated us all, and she made it a habit to consistently recognize our efforts and accomplishments, instilling a sense of pride and loyalty in the team. Oftentimes, I would feel as if my efforts would go unnoticed due to how straightforward much of it was, but she always assured me that I was an important cog in our machine. Furthermore, Jen faces challenges with a calm and composed demeanor, always providing innovative solutions and encouraging the team to contribute their insights. Her ability to navigate through tough situations and steer the team towards success was and will always be the measuring stick with which I will compare future leaders I work under to. In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Jen Wilder for any role or responsibility. Her rare combination of technical expertise, leadership prowess, and genuine care for the team makes her an exceptional manager. Any organization would be fortunate to have her as part of their team. Please do not hesitate to reach out to me if you require any further information about Jen or my experiences under her guidance. I can be reached at [email protected] or (510) 676-4587. Thank you for considering my recommendation. I have the utmost confidence that Jen will continue to excel in any future endeavors.”
