Novantas Alumni

From 2001 onward, Pete led the corporate banking practice at Novantas and helped develop the Firm’s financial institutions strategy services. A long time consultant, his enormous energy and client dedication during his leadership of our work for McGraw Hill brought him to the attention of its CEO, Terry McGraw. Pete was asked to head up strategic planning for the company, and subsequently made President of McGraw Hill Education.

Sarah joined the Firm as an experienced marketing professional. She made significant contributions to the Firm’s customer segmentation methodologies, as well as the Firm’s Mindswift application. Most of all, Sarah brought the enthusiasm and optimism of a true entrepreneur to her client engagements. While at Novantas, she helped launch Buttoned Up, designing products and services for organized living. Today, she continues to exercise her business start-up skills at a new media company she co-founded.

“Novantas gave me enormous levels of responsibility, like presenting to senior clients and managing people, sooner than I could have imagined. The travel opportunities are fantastic; Project work took me to Hong Kong, Singapore, England, Mexico, Silicon Valley. Although I’ve decided to focus on a legal career, I find that I use the analytical and management skills I developed at Novantas on a daily basis.”

“The experiences I had at Novantas help me every day as a senior executive. In my years at the Firm, I learned more about how companies are managed, and how to get things done in complex organizations, than I would have at any other job.”

“It has been one of my most rewarding experiences to participate in the growth and success of Novantas. The Firm gave me a strong foundation of financial industry expertise, and taught me how to deconstruct and solve tough problems in a logical, fact-based manner. I find these skills invaluable in my role as a senior executive at Santander in the UK.”

“I will always be indebted to my colleagues at Novantas, because they taught me how to think critically, and express myself in a compelling, professional manner.”
