Background

About Tina Groves

CAREER GOAL To create high value and innovative products that accelerate decision making through analytics and visualizations. CAREER HIGHLIGHTS Tina derives market insights from her broad product management experience, from managing the customer relationships of a mature product to the dynamic experience of new product introduction. Her passion shows most when exploring how to exploit innovative technologies. She's demonstrated skill leading envisioning investigations, developing business cases, identifying high value use cases and go-to-market approaches. She introduced 2 highly-visible components to the Cognos portfolio and was the product management lead for a release which generated $500+ million USD over its life. She was a popular speaker and an often called-upon evangelist for briefings with industry analysts and customers. In July 2013, she was rated as one of top 200 Twitter influencers by Onalytica for big data, out of 125k accounts. Tina's last full-time role was providing strategic market insights to the executives of the Media and Weather segment of IBM and identifying leads for the business development team, including acquisitions and partnerships. At this time, Tina is enjoying time with friends and family, catching up on time missed due to the pandemic lock downs. Ideally, she will apply her strategic savvy again in the future. UNIQUE QUALITIES A self-starter by nature, Tina is consistently identified as a star for her energy and “can do” attitude. But, it’s her ability to match technology opportunity with business need and her ability to synthesize and simplify complex information that sets her apart. This ability is supported by her achievements: two patents, numerous special contribution awards and the inclusion of a gold medal application, to which she was a key contributor, in a Smithsonian Institute time capsule. LINKEDIN REQUEST POLICY I accept LinkedIn requests from colleagues and people whom I have interacted with through sharing professional or volunteer interests. I do not accept requests from people that I don't know including recruiters or job seekers.
