“I had the pleasure of working with Britt in a class called Leading Groups and Teams at UNC Kenan-Flagler business school. Britt quickly emerged as a leader amongst leaders in a highly talented and diverse group. Britt leads by example with empathy, proactivity, strategic thinking, and openness to ideas. All of these qualities enabled our team to excel and have fun at the same time. When she received recognition for one of our class’ best overall team member, it was not a surprise. As a developing leader, I took note of Britt’s ability to lead with her head and her heart without sacrificing either one. I give her my highest recommendation and look forward to following her journey.”
