Hello, I’m Jacque.
I help businesses create value & sustainable growth by connecting dots between business and technology and translating into actional plans to realize business objectives.
My Approach
Collaborative
I believe in the power of collaboration to build relationships and trust. As an extension of your team, I work to understand your vision, goals, opportunities and challenges. From there, we partner to determine practical ways technology can enable and/or mitigate risk to your success.
Common Language
I take complexity out of the discussion, using common language and visuals to communicate. Over the course of my career, I helped organizations solve problems by combining people, process, data and technology capabilities to deliver results. I leverage problem solving skills (love white boards!) with strengths in relationship building, process optimization, org change management and approachable leadership traits to deliver outcomes. Whiles strategies are essential, it is critical to translate into actionable components, utilizing a transformational and cross functional mindset (sprinkling in a sense of humor along the way).

Often technology is a trigger for fundamental change in how a company operates. This type of change can be challenging, but it can also lead to significant improvements in performance. Examples include ERP implementation - a key success factor is recognizing the need to focus on transformation.

It's more important than ever that IT and the business operate from the same playbook. This is a continuous & iterative focus, fueled by the internet and digitalization transforming both how people work and how they engage with organizations.

Planning strategy, roadmaps and actions such as Policies, Procedures and technology capabilities needed to advance risk posture, utilizing NIST and potentially accreditations such as ISO 27001.

This focus areas continues to evolve due to information security standards, requiring a structured set of policies, procedures, processes, and roles that define how an organization collects, stores, manages, and uses its data, ensuring its quality, security, and compliance with relevant regulations, by clearly outlining responsibilities for data ownership, access controls, and usage across the entire data lifecycle.
About me - my mindset…
Growing up on a family dairy farm shaped my mindset at a young age, one of my favorite slogans:
“Sow, Grow, and Glow”: Farmers plant the seeds, nurture growth, and create a brighter future for all.
