Testimonials/References

“Christina added a real dimension to the UK marketing team, and in particular upped the game in terms of the sales enablement and customer collateral, to the point that one of my new colleagues stated it was the best content he has seen in 20 years in the industry. You should also be incredibly proud of the work you have done to pull together such a great engagement programme across the MIN network, I have watched in awe. A great colleague and loved working with you!
Mike Grogan, Industry Director, Microsoft UK

 

Christina is a true marketing lead! Since taking over the field marketing team, she has transformed the Vodafone image in the channel and injected both quality and pace. Today’s great presence of Vodafone would not have been possible without her!”
Alberto Dolcetta, Associate Director Partner & Brands, Glovo, Italy

 

“Christina is brilliant. From the moment she first appeared in the business she was transformational. She has an incredible ability to deliver more than: more that you asked for, more than you thought possible, more results. Hugely impressive. Christina is tireless. She is the “tinker bell” of marketing – throwing her magic dust around.”
Nick Adams, New Business Director, LGH, BT

 

“Christina has the amazing capacity to make the impossible possible. In my time working with her at Nokia, I have seen Christina take on formidable projects, and deliver results beyond expectations. I have seen her take on a project that was by all accounts a train wreck, and turn it into a model of top-class marketing execution. Christina regularly manages to weave together the seemingly contradictory goals of a wide range of stakeholders, without compromising the quality of the final outcome. In short, Christina can accomplish any challenge set to her. She is a tireless and dedicated person. She has a unique approach that is human, respectful, creative and often unconventional. Her work has won the respect of her colleagues throughout Nokia’s marketing organization, including mine.”
Darryl Pieber, Creative Director/Verbal Identity, Nokia UK

 

“What an impact you have had during your time with us. From the brilliant campaigns, not to mention the Change Bandits, to your fantastic work on diversity and Inclusion. But most of all it is your energy, passion and commitment that mean you will be sorely missed. You will have a big impact wherever life takes you.”
Colm O’Neill, Managing Director, Major Corporate and Public Sector, BT, London

 

“Christina Chan is unstoppable! Along with her eye for strong, creative ideas, Chris has that unique ability to steward and protect those ideas through multi-matrixed organizations. Christina was that “favourite” client who respected her people, respected the work of her agency, cultivated collaboration and could be counted on to represent work in the best light. Christina’s passion for…more”
Christian Wolfe, Senior Director of Marketing, ANN INC, US 

 

“Is it a bird or is it a plane? Christina was the kind of superhero who would knock the socks off of whoever she engaged with. Applying an abundance of creativity and intelligence she wrangled huge value for BT Defence. Marketing went from a glorified marketing communications function to … well a great “make a difference” marketing unit. Hugely satisfying, hugely fun and more importantly, she made it profitable.”
Richard Hall, Defence Sales Director, BT, London
