“Nicole is a dynamic, insightful, collaborative and strategic CMO and business executive. And I would highly recommend her to lead any high growth B2B SaaS company’s marketing organization. That being said, most recently my marketing team engaged Nicole to lead a generative AI training and best practices course to help us accelerate our learning and adoption of these new and powerful tools. Her training was on-point, and “real-time” in that she even incorporated new learnings that came out that morning into our training seminar. Nicole has deep knowledge of the generative AI history (1.5 years of it), evolution and tools available for marketers to learn and leverage. Her training was not just informative, but mind-opening and blowing as we started to really understand how these tools could change our growth, efficiency and productivity trajectory without losing the human element that marketing still requires.
