What’s your favorite thing about working here?

I love working at TTI Success Insights because we can make a difference in so many different ways. For close to twenty years, I have watched as people read and reflect on TTI Success Insights reports. Over and over again, I hear people say that working with the reports and the coaches, trainers, and advisors who debrief them have changed lives.

There are many other great things about working at TTI Success Insights, including our wonderful staff, the great legacy Bill and Dave Bonnstetter have created, and the opportunity for everyone to prosper while helping others. And I believe our best days are still in front of us.

I love to spend time with my daughters and husband— I am always learning something from our interactions and it allows me to reflect on simple approaches to the daily demands of life today.

brittney
What’s your DISC type?

High D/I - Direct & Outgoing

What’s your top driver?

Receptive and Commanding are at 100 and 99 for me!

What do you do at TTI SI?

As the VP of Partner Services, I get to lead the team that manages and executes all customer-facing interactions. I have more than a decade of experience on the Partner side. I try to bring reality and ease to the relationships between our customers, partners, and internal TTI SI staff.

My role is to ensure that the TTI team has the resources and knowledge to best connect with and partner with our customers to make the world a better place by helping reveal human potential.

What’s your favorite thing about working here?

I'm passionate about creating environments that are fun and effective. I try to remove obstacles for team members, partners, and clients by ensuring that they have what they need to do their best work efficiently and effectively. I like to move fast, I like to get things done and I like to see the end result.

Working through our Professional Services team, I'm able to better understand what's happening at the client level and bring that information back to our internal team. I'm motivated by achieving more, doing better, and being better individually, as a team, and as an organization. I get to do this while living out my personal values... being authentic, transparent, open-minded, and adventurous all while maintaining a sense of humor and fun! Life's too short to live any other way.

Who are you outside of work?

My husband and I have been called adrenaline junkies from time to time. We love to try new things and share new experiences. If we're able to do that being outdoors: bonus points! When I can, I like to be on or behind a boat, hiking (preferably with our two dogs), in the pool, or exploring somewhere new — the culture, the food, the sights! I love jumping out of perfectly good airplanes and would spend all my spare time in San Diego if I could (it's my happy place and favorite place we've lived). When a new opportunity or challenge (personally or professionally) is thrown my way, I've made it my mission to say yes! Life is for living.

I lead the TTI SI Technology Group and am responsible for the operations of the computer infrastructure, including how TTI SI deploys products and optimizes them for customers.

What’s your favorite thing about working here?

My work is satisfying and seemingly tailor-made for me, my style, and what type of work energizes me, but that is not what makes TTI SI such a great place to work—- the people here are amazing! It's the best work-family I have ever known. People are sincere and care very much about each other, our customers, and our products. The products themselves are, in my opinion, exceedingly important—- I have literally watched them transform people's lives, including my own. We help people have better interactions and understanding of themselves and others and help make the world a better place, one person at a time.

Who are you outside of work?

I’m the bassist in the band Mixtape and I will never turn down the opportunity hit the golf green or ride a motorcycle. I have a passion for experimenting with cooking and baking with my wife as well.

Senior Business Services Consultant
070722_Carol
What’s your DISC type?

High S, Low I - Steady & Reserved

What’s your top driver?

Collaborative

What do you do at TTI SI?

As a Sr. Business Sevices Consultant, I transform communication and awareness among teams and individuals by bringing data to life. I draw from 40 years of honing my coaching, consulting, and analytical skills. I use intuitive and insightful questions in order to glean critical and complete information, working to improve everything I do. These skills and attention to detail help me reveal human potential not seen by most in every client interaction and training I facilitate.

What’s your favorite thing about working here?

I’m focused on investing in others to help them become the best version of themselves. Working with individuals and organizations to better understand their own unique set of talents and skills has been a lifelong passion of mine. My fulfillment comes from seeing others find their true passion and being able to live out a life of joy. At TTI SI, this is demonstrated through assisting partners in creating analytics that can exponentially take their clients' organizations to a new level of engagement and success.

Who are you outside of work?

I love spending time with my family! I’m a mom of two, and a proud Nana of two pretty incredible grandchildren. In the last few years, I’ve taken up pickleball to stay competitive and seek out new friends. My life-long goal has been to stay fit and healthy—- I live by the philosophy of setting an example of what is possible through a deeper understanding of oneself and a drive to be true to yourself in every aspect of one’s life.

What’s your DISC type?

High I & Low D (those scores are tied!) - Outgoing & Reflective

What’s your top driver?

Harmonious at 99!

What do you do at TTI SI?

I do my best at giving feedback to all our creative efforts with an eye toward quality and consistency, to help keep the team on track. I am also very lucky to serve as an advisor to the Marketing side of the Marketing & Creative Services team, but in all honesty, they don't need much!

What’s your favorite thing about working here?

My absolute favorite thing about working at TTI SI is the group of talented people I get to collaborate (and laugh) with each and every day.

Who are you outside of work?

I am an artist, with the heart of a child. Frequent trips to Disneyland with my wife help keep the gray hair at bay. I enjoy a good road trip, and have a mind for minutiae: I guarantee I know more Star Wars trivia than anyone reading this; if you'd like to test me please drop an email!
