Marta’s leadership at Step Up has helped to grow the organization to higher levels over her leadership tenure with the organization. She joined the Board and immediately became a natural leader and trusted advisor to me and my team. Since Marta assumed the role of Los Angeles President, revenues have grown significantly, the Board has more than doubled its fundraising, our community programs are richer and impact an exponentially larger number of women and girls, we have a tiered membership fundraising strategy, and hired the first three staff within the Los Angeles chapter. Her leadership style is diplomatic and direct, and has allowed her to manage and work with the many type-A overachievers we luckily have on our all-volunteer Board and working Committees.
As a result of Marta and her team’s strategic and professional approach to their roles, the Los Angeles chapter continues to methodically set and then reach its goals. I have great respect for Marta in both the nonprofit as well as for-profit arenas. Marta is the kind of person that excels at everything she does. She gives everything over 100%. She is also an ethical and fair person, who is extremely thoughtful in her approach to all business endeavors. She is an asset to any team.
