Love People. Create Value. Get Results.

I have been fortunate to work with and learn from some exceptional leaders across my career, but Justin McCullough stands out among them. Justin excels at simplifying the complex... The way he shares a vision and the plan to get there ignites enthusiasm and makes it easy to get on board. Working cross-functionally, he creates a unity of purpose that drives collaboration, overcoming individual or departmental agendas. He doesn’t demand consensus, he leads by example to build it.  Justin is a true leader who puts in the work to get the absolute best out of people. His openness and candor builds trust, because it is safe to have a differing opinion or voice a concern. Knowing your leader 100% has your back empowers you to try new things and truly grow as a professional.

There are very few leaders who lead with empathy like Justin does. He is a highly strategic and detail oriented product leader who knows exactly how to build high performing teams. He has the perfect mix of discipline and agility that makes him a highly effective problem solver. With him incharge, I am certain that any organization (blue chip or a startup) can reach new heights and build truly innovative products. I can vouch for his leadership and owe a great deal of growth to his mentorship.

Justin is possibly the best leader I’ve had the privilege of working for, and I’ve worked with some incredibly talented people. Justin knows how to deliver. He creates purpose in every interaction, leverages his teams’ strengths and coaches them through their areas of improvement. He sets strategic direction and achievable goals, understanding people on a human level whether they work above, below or to the side of him. When things get tough, he’s in the trenches. When there’s ambiguity, he creates clarity. And when there’s success, he ensures his team are recognized first and foremost... He was genuinely interested in me as a person, in my opinions and thoughts, and in my personal and professional development. Over time it became evident that he is not only a genuine person but also extremely talented in his field and an exceptional leader. With Justin’s experience and conviction from having seen it/done it/reacted to it before, he creates context and space that allow others to lean in with confidence and take personal ownership. The feedback loops, coaching, and autonomy Justin offers has allowed me to focus in, make an impact and continue to grow personally and professionally.

Justin is an excellent leader who inspires action and growth at all levels. He is able to digest, synthesize, and communicate complex topics and plans across sales, product, operations, and marketing to build consensus and buy-in across diverse teams and organizational structures. He consistently demonstrates the unique ability to dive in deep when necessary but also maintain perspective for a larger, more long-term, strategy. He has a proven track record of understanding the complexity of SAAS platforms, demand generation and creating operational and marketing strategies that improve the customer and associate experience as well as driving revenue and conversion.

Justin is an exceptional leader of both products and people. Justin has a brilliant ability to break down complex problems into their core components. He can weave those components together into a continuous narrative that allows them to be understood and addressed by stakeholders and customers at every level.  Justin is at his best when leading cross-functional teams. He bringing out the talents of each team member, combining their contributions into a refined outcome with purposeful impact. Most importantly, Justin brings focused energy to every interaction. As a leader he uplifts his team and makes the most of every day.
