Talent Development Manager at Crane Authentication, developing global learning strategies and a Skills Matrix to close skills gaps.

United States
Message

At Crane Authentication, I design and execute learning and development strategies aligned with organizational objectives. I developed and rolled out a global Skills Matrix, then created action plans to bridge the skills gaps it identified.

At commercetools, I developed leadership and high-potential learning programs, created learning paths for technical and non-technical roles, and implemented a company-wide Psychological Safety Program. I’ve also managed learning programs and delivered training across different formats, from e-learning to in-person sessions.
