Since 2006, she has worked with leading organizations on four continents, from Chicago to Shanghai and Rio to Rome, including GE, Travelers, Praxair, Assa Abloy, Chase and Yale University.

Recent consulting relationships include working with the executive team of a publicly traded company to prepare their quarterly earnings call and presentation for investors and helping a newly promoted executive roll out a major change initiative to a 50,000-person organization.

Successful leaders benefit from having access to Bonanno when and where they need her advice,
