TESTIMONIALS

John Bourgoin, Chief Executive Officer and President, MIPS Technologies
A 30-year veteran of the semiconductor industry, Bourgoin was group vice president of the Communication Products Division at Advanced Micro Devices, where he worked closely with Julie Tyger in her role as division product line marketing manager.

“I have witnessed Julie’s ability to drive to the heart of a problem, her tenacity, and her sense of humor work highly effectively with factory personnel, customers, and salespeople worldwide. I consider her to have the highest integrity, and I would trust her to get to the cause of complex problems.”

Terry Smith, President, Water Security Corporation
Terry Smith was vice president of sales for Europe at Advanced Micro Devices.

“With Julie driving product marketing, we won the largest, most important accounts across Europe at companies like GEC-Plessey, Siemens, Ericsson, and Nokia. As one of a handful of senior female executives in the industry, Julie had to prove herself daily. She moved to Europe to get closer to her customers. She is honest, direct and very perceptive. The salespeople didn’t always agree with her, but they respected her. Maybe more importantly, the customers respected, trusted, and liked her. When it came time to deliver, Julie always made sure we met our commitments.”

Michael E. Stibila, PE, President, dB Technologies
Mike Stibila worked closely with Julie in his roles as strategic marketing, systems design, and algorithm development manager at AMD and as vice president of marketing and applications at Legerity (a spin-off of AMD). Mr. Stibila is a licensed professional engineer (P.E.) and holds several patents in communications circuits and systems.

“I have issues with marketing people who don't know their products, especially those who don't even try to understand the technology. Julie is different. As a matter of fact, she convinced me to make the move into strategic marketing from my senior engineering position at Siemens Stromberg-Carlson. She respects the engineering team and we respect her because she takes the time to listen and understand the issues thoroughly. Julie balances the conflicting demands between the customer and sales, marketing, engineering, and manufacturing organizations extremely well. She doesn't shy away from a challenge. Julie is at her best when there is a big problem with no clear path to a solution. She steps up to lead and people follow.”

“Coaching is a synergistic and powerful relationship. It is a partnership whereby collaboration creates better and faster results. The best coaches in sports and business know that partnerships, relationships, and teamwork are more important than individual skill to consistently winning championships and being successful. Julie played competitive high school basketball where she was consistently rewarded for being a strong team player. Her clients can expect Julie to exhibit this same collaborative style as she insightfully and respectfully guides them to overcoming obstacles to success by helping them gain clarity and forward progress.”

“To achieve any significant impact it is important for people who work with executives to have a deep understanding of business issues. This is especially true when using a breakthrough tool such as the Enneagram. Julie’s depth of experience in fast-paced corporations provides an insider’s view that turns the Enneagram and its personality insights into a vivid learning experience. Her methods of enhancing individual leadership and team performance are living, breathing tools you can use every day, not just another psychology system that ends up in a dusty filing cabinet in the corner.”
