“Working with Anne on the various Microsoft Press titles we produced for the IT Professional audience was a delight -- and in the very best possible way, a challenge. Anne drives herself to have both a clear strategic goal and clear steps to achieving that goal -- and encourages those around her to rise to that same standard. She has both an analytic mind and an engaging human touch, letting her dive into details or present the scope of a vision.”
