ANGELA MONDOU



 

Mission-Critical Leadership
 



What do war zones, Vietnamese orphanages, F18 fighter-aircraft missions, high-tech product launches, the Oprah Winfrey Show, and the NFL Super Bowl have in common? The same thing that career, adventure, life and dreams have in common.

There is no question - today's business world is a project-driven, mission-critical environment, and leading successful projects is similar to the fast-paced, intense missions common to the military and the leading-edge, high-tech industry. Whatever your goals, success comes down to turning plans into reality. It's all about execution!
 



Angela Mondou is a former Air Force captain and marketing executive whose unique and unconventional career has taken her from worldwide military operations to top-ranked high-tech companies, most recently Research In Motion, the creators of BlackBerry™.

As a military officer, while working for NATO in West Germany, Angela successfully developed the strategy to deploy the largest United Nations Peacekeeping contingent in history in 1992 into former Yugoslavia -  while under fire and in just 10 days! She was also responsible for the rapid mobility planning and global logistics for the Canadian Forces Fighter squadrons during Operation Desert Storm.

After nine years in the Air Force, Angela moved on to the high-tech industry where she worked in North America, Europe, the Middle East and Africa. As a global team leader she was responsible for numerous 'rapid results' initiatives including: dynamic marketing programs, channel development strategies and product and team launches for some of the most exciting wireless technology this decade!

In 2005 Angela was honoured to represent Canada’s peacekeepers in the Year of the Veteran campaign. Angela appeared in a television commercial commemorating veterans and was featured on a special circulation 25-cent coin released by the Royal Canadian Mint.

Angela has taken her unique leadership experience to a whole new level. She is a powerful national speaker on leadership and career strategies, delivering leading-edge workshops and keynotes.
 


 

In addition, in 2006 Angela self-published her first book, Hit the Ground Leading! and it was recently rated as one of the best business books for 2006 by The CEO Refresher.

"Angela provides a fun and innovative method of engaging participants in learning about traditional managerial subjects. Her course is not about lecturing or taking notes - it's about active participation in scenarios devised outside of typical manufacturing examples, which makes the training content more interesting, but which have direct application to our daily work environment. This course is a great alternative to the "same old'" way of teaching managerial skills!"
- Campbell Company of Canada
 



"Participation in Angela Mondou's leadership workshop was very eye-opening. The whole experience was akin to waking up and realizing where and how we function as leaders in today's fast-paced environment. The approach to the workshop was multidimensional and each module I found to be both revealing and useful. I walked away from the program with a better appreciation for team dynamics, rapid decision-making, fast paced communication, and working in a mission critical environment. The tools and techniques presented in the workshop are both practical and highly relevant to our company's projects. This program should be part of any serious management training program."
