Centex Homes

Independent Consultant

I am a passionate and focused leader who loves to build and has the ability to bring order and clarity to situations where there is ambiguity or chaos. I am a creative problem solver, and a bit of a geek. 

I believe:
- Being a leader means leading the “whole” person - mentoring young talent is something I get much satisfaction from
- The Pareto Principle (the 80/20 rule) - Progress is better than perfection...every time
- Occam’s Razor - the simplest solution to a problem is usually the best
- Consensus is important - but that doesn’t mean 100% agreement, it means we can all support a decision 100%

I get sh*t done by:
- Getting support and alignment across diverse stakeholders trying to achieve Big Hairy Audacious Goals (BHAG) through consensus building
- Balancing the healthy tension between strategic initiatives and tactical priorities
- Keep my eyes on the future rather than looking back
- Cutting through the noise and focusing on outcomes

Coming out of college with an engineering degree, then into management consulting and eventually into marketing / operations has exposed me to many types of companies and industries. 

If your organization needs some strategic guidance for your operations functions, let’s talk. I can help with advisory services, fractional leadership, or projects to optimize your processes and resources.

Yes, I know...I'm behind on posting about Ops Cast episodes (again). But Thanksgiving felt like the perfect time to catch up and to say thank you. 🦃

When we started Ops Cast, my biggest worry wasn't the tech, the editing, or the cadence - it was whether we'd have enough guests to keep it going. Turns out, that was never the problem.

We’ve been blessed with an incredible #community of marketing operations, revops, and martech professionals who’ve given generously of their time, insights, and humor. Over the past few months, we’ve released episodes with:

 🎙️ Sari Hegewald – The Human Side of Marketing Ops
 🎙️ Sarah Lane-Hawn🧚‍♀️– From Ticket-Taker to Strategic Influencer
 🎙️ Danielle Urban – From Scrappy to Scalable: Martech Maturity in HubSpot
 🎙️ Danielle Balestra – Building MOPs in Highly Regulated Industries
 🎙️ Tracey Fudge – Practical AI for Marketing and Ops
 🎙️ Penny Hill – Simplifying the Complex: Attribution, Alignment, and What Really Matters
 🎙️ Aby Varma – The Value-Driven Path to AI Adoption

Each conversation reminded me how much talent, creativity, and generosity exist in this community.

So, to every guest who has joined us (and those still to come), to everyone who has listened, shared, or sent us a note - thank you. You've made this podcast more than a series of episodes; you've made it a place for connection and learning - and I am the primary beneficiary.

Here's to the people behind the dashboards, data, and strategy - the real people of Marketing Ops and the Marketing Ops Community. 🙌

Business Operations Executive | Marketing/Revenue Ops Advisor and Leadership Coach | Podcaster

Most teams say they are "doing AI." Spencer Tahil says most of them are not.

In this week's Ops Cast episode, Spencer joins me to break down why #AI isn't really transforming most marketing teams - it's just helping them do the same old tasks slightly faster.

According to Spencer, the real divide isn't between AI adopters and laggards...
It's between teams that automate tasks and teams that rebuild processes.

We dig into:
✔️ Why "just spin up an AI pilot" is the fastest path to wasted time
 ✔️ How to escape the trap of superficial use cases
 ✔️ Why AI fails when it's treated like a feature instead of a workflow
 ✔️ The organizational change required, not just the tech change
 ✔️ What it takes to scale AI beyond individual enthusiasts
 ✔️ Why MOPs should own the AI operating model (and why most don't yet)

Spencer's take is simple and sharp:
AI won't replace marketers - but marketers who understand systems thinking will replace those who don't.

If you’ve ever wondered why your AI "wins" aren’t moving KPIs...this episode will hit uncomfortably close to home.

VP Emerita UN Women | Attorney Action Figure 🦸🏻‍♀️ | Arresting Author | Chief Negotiation Officer | Plucky Podcast Host | Irreverent Int'l Keynote | "What Box?" Bellwether

📚 World domination through literary seduction. Elegant. Defiant. Irresistibly true. Are you ready for what's next (October 13, 2025)? MY WRITING IS ORGANIC USING REAL INTELLIGENCE (AI wishes it could write like me)

I'm not bossy. I'm BOSS. A UN Women VP, provocatrice, attorney/law professor turned negotiation GOAT . . .

(Buckle up. This is ..."a lot")

🦸🏻‍♀️ I help women harness the power of everyday negotiation—from conning a toddler into eating peas to running the boardroom. I authored the Little Black Dress of negotiation books. Why?

Because negotiation isn’t just for business. It’s everybody’s business 🧐

(But you don’t need me to “empower” you. Nor do I sell a “masterclass” or certification from my own “institute”)

🌍 World Mediation Peace Activist. Benevolent & incurable explorer (dubbed “creative savant”—you know who you are). A bit wild at ❤️‍🔥, I struggle with purpose and disrupt with goodwill—through advocacy, teaching, writing, broadcasting, philanthropy, art & sports.

🗣️ Polyglot. Passionate about people & social progress. JEDI agent (not a Star Wars ref). I’ve practiced law in private, public & non-profit sectors; have taught internationally, including over two decades as faculty at two University of California law schools.

I get that people are messy multitudes—and how they actually behave in conflict & decision-making.
What makes me next-level? Decades of deep experience in negotiation, behavioral economics, game theory, plus dope training in:

✔️ Emotional micro-expressions
✔️ Lie detection
✔️ Neuroscience & decision analysis

Oh, and I know the #1 most stealth negotiation skill. 😎

(Kinda like x-ray vision. Hint: it’s NOT “speaking your truth.”)

WHAT I’M NOT:

❌ A sales/marketing bro who built my expertise off a “masterclass”
❌ A brand
❌ Your income stream
❌ After your 💰 or approval
❌ One to trademark words. Ahem™ 🙄 (you know the type)

Special needs parent & dog whisperer—chaos doesn’t faze me, and persistence is my default setting. CEO of a 501(c)(3) nonprofit providing dogs & sibling support for families with special needs kids.

🫶 Turn-ons: Cake, shoes, pour-over coffee, decent literature
🤢 Turn-offs: NIMBYism, vapid buzzwords, elitism, posers

💡 Meyers-Briggs type? ENFJ-A (same 2% club as Obama & Oprah).

🕸️See more on pactumfactum.com, but TLDR: 
I’m 95% human Labrador (begs the question: what’s the other 5%?). Find it endearing or annoying. That's on you. Either way, I’ll be me because, as Oscar Wilde said, “Everyone else is taken.”

P.S.
❌ I don’t do casual Zoom coffee chats
✅ I’ve already overpaid it forward
