Endorsements

  • Oana is a multidimensional force multiplier for any senior executive who has more to do than time permits. I had the pleasure of working with Oana in both big company and start-up environments and she excelled in the skills that matter while being extremely collaborative, constructive, and very efficient. I very much enjoyed partnering with Oana and I highly recommend her as a high value contributor. She will make you better.

    Executive Vice President & Former General Counsel, General Motors | President & Chief Administrative Officer, Cruise

  • Oana was a trusted operator across every dimension of my professional and personal life for eight years. She led my legacy philanthropic engagements with over 600 charities, managed high-level events and presentations, handled confidential financials and sensitive government relations, and remained the single point of trust throughout. Her ability to cultivate meaningful relationships is what enabled results that had never been achieved prior to her tenure, in the history of our firm. Even in retirement, I have yet to meet anyone who operates with her level of precision, judgment, and loyalty. To this day, she remains one of the very few individuals in my inner circle whom I unreservedly trust.

    Founder & Former Executive Chairman, Leading Canadian Investment Bank | Recognized as one of Canada’s 50 Most Influential Business Leaders

  • Oana brings structure, speed, and operational control that transforms leadership teams. She raised the bar for how we operated and gave the business momentum when we needed it most. I once described her as a Ferrari, and I still stand by that.
