“I have known Carolyn since 2001, first as a CFO for DDB subsidiaries, and now as a consultant. She is the first person I call when we have short-term needs, as she is professional, reliable, knowledgeable, and is able to quickly adapt to any new situation. Both management and staff enjoy her collaborative efforts and partnership in helping achieve the goals we have set forth for her. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to colleagues and industry executives.”
— Keith Bremer, Chief Financial Officer, DDB Worldwide
“{Carolyn} jumped into an unfamiliar situation with little notice and quickly immersed herself in the culture and business of Tribal New York. {She} did this without complaint despite our idiosyncrasies and to great effect. For this and so much more, thank you. I simply don’t know what we would have done without the benefit of {her} talents. I consider myself extremely fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with {her} and I hope that we get to work together again in the future.”
— Richard Guest, President, Tribal Worldwide
“I worked with Carolyn in an interim CFO capacity when we were in a state of need. She needed very little direction and guidance (but knew when to ask if she did), was able to handle complex problems, and was a pleasure to work with. We’ve kept in touch since...shared information as needed, gotten together when the need arose, and I would call on her again!”
— Nancy Casey Kapplow, CFO/COO North America, Interbrand
“As a young company, Womenkind relied on Carolyn to initiate and shape the reporting of financial data within our organization as well as estimate costs of potential projects, enabling us to operate more effectively and profitably.
Carolyn proved herself to be a valuable asset in helping build that structure as well as the financial strategy of our company. With strong organizational skills and keen strategic insight she executed all with great proficiency.”
— Sandy Sabean, Chief Creative Officer, W O M E N K ! N D
“Carolyn Hauptman is a class act. Her counsel is solid and grounded in experience with big agency networks and nascent agency start ups. She is a walking wikipedia of best practices, terrific at guiding both the financially-minded and financial luddites, and never loses her cool. A solid yet creative resource that I highly recommend.”
