Julie Clark began her career with major technology services organizations, including IBM and Oracle. Since then, over 20 years in the technology industry have taught her a little bit about what it takes to be successful - and how easy it is to miss the mark. By choosing product managers and marketers who are above average, and who go beyond generic functional skills, companies enable their sales force, drive development, and beat the competition.
Effective product management is achieved through laser-like focus on the target market, a keen grasp of the product domain, and outstanding functional abilities as a product manager. Great marketing is also based on a real understanding of the target market, its goals and its challenges and, when done extremely well, can broaden markets, challenge competitors and lower the cost of sale.
Over the last decade, Julie has set herself apart in Western Canada with some of the same qualities that make a great product manager - depth of knowledge of her target market, understanding of the challenges for early stage tech companies, and the ability to present options and deliver solutions. Julie is unique in her level of focus - excellence in recruiting for product managers and marketing talent.
