Huge huge shoutout to Melissa Wood who also onboarded onto the Sheets project towards the end and has spared no effort in her understanding of this new phase of sheets, strategizing on best ways to proceed when things weren't going so well, and always being there to support the team when we needed it!
Melissa continues to help us all bridge the gap between our day-to-day development work and the larger business goals of what we're developing by sharing her insights into our products/features. Thank you Melissa for everything you're bringing to the team!

Way to go Melissa for Taking the Lead in working with Kaitlin to build out a streamlined feedback loop around the latest Quorum improvements to our International Product!
As we work to scale our International product offerings, it became clear we needed an updated process for collecting and sharing sales feedback and Melissa did a great job of recognizing the gap and working tightly with Kaitlin to put together a strong solution."

Huge shoutout to Melissa and Alex for preparing a thorough stakeholder update on upcoming AI Search launch. Melissa and Alex put together clearly defined milestones around product dev launch and GTM initiatives, RACI info on the full GTM team, and clearly defined OKRs for this project. Having this written documentation and expectation setting up front will help set up every team for success as we consider roll out.Additionally, shoutout to Melissa for leading the discussion on AI Search at Product Office Hours last week.

Melissa has been great as a PM throughout the International project and not only, consistently maintaining synchronization, adaptability, and prompt responsiveness. She played a pivotal role in ensuring the project's success by actively managing acceptance criteria and collaborating closely with the platform team. Melissa's involvement in negotiations and her ability to set clear expectations were instrumental in delivering the international project on schedule. Additionally, her informative presentations to the team provided valuable insights into the project's purpose and fostered a deeper understanding among team members.

Melissa is an incredible partner to the PMM team. I always know I can rely on her to provide detailed and accurate information about any new product release, no matter the scope. She is on top of deadlines, consistently follows through with me and other contributors to make sure we're getting things done, and is always looking to improve her skills.
As an example, during the verified transcripts launch Melissa kept me updated about every change, helped me craft compelling messaging, and even updated the team about our Pendo guide metrics post-launch. Melissa created detailed product training materials for the BD and CS team, coordinated with CS and BD leaders to make sure we were on the schedule to present, and also wrote the script for our how-to video to make sure that we shared every key feature.
As a result of her collaboration, the launch went smoothly and I even got an email back from a customer who was very happy to hear about this update!!
Thank you for your hard work and dedication Melissa!! You are the best!!
