Leading transformation.
Driving growth.
Delivering ROI.

I had the privilege of working in Monika's team at Cummins for more than three years, where she led Marketing and Communications for Asia Pacific across a complex and diverse region. Monika was one of the most caring, strategic and determined leaders I have worked with. Her leadership style was open, purposeful and humane, defined by clear communication, decisive firmness on key decisions, and a thoughtful, empathetic approach with the team. She combined strategic thinking with genuine care for people. She set clear directions, held high standards, led with strength and conviction, and always made time to listen, support and develop the team. Monika created a work environment built on trust, accountability, and collaboration. We supported one another through challenging periods and delivered some very strong results. Under Monika's leadership I excelled. I would consider myself incredibly fortunate to work with her again.

Working with Monika on the Cummins Asia Pacific leadership team was a real pleasure. She made a strong and lasting contribution to how we led the region. We achieved record growth in Asia Pacific during that time, and Monika played an important part in supporting it. She brought sharp commercial thinking to every leadership discussion, and her ideas often shaped decisions well beyond her own function. One of her great strengths is bringing people together. Monika built genuine collaboration across all our business segments, which helped us move faster as one region. She was also a great partner in our transformation work. She champions new ideas and new ways of working, and she led her team to excellent work and record results. She built a Culture of Care where people felt safe to challenge the status quo and try more productive ways of working, while staying focused on results. Her drive and energy are infectious. I would recommend Monika without hesitation to any organisation looking for a commercially minded strategic marketing and transformation leader who will lift the whole leadership team and lead change with energy and heart.

I worked at Cummins for more than 20 years as Communications and PR Manager, and for the last two of those years I reported directly to Monika. I worked with many leaders over my career, and Monika stood out as the one I would gladly work for again. Monika led a real transformation of our team. She brought us together around one shared strategy, aligned our work with the strategic priorities of the business, and connected our work across countries so we planned and delivered as one team. She also introduced clear commercial measures, so we could show the impact of our work to the business. The team was spread across several countries, with five nationalities and a wide range of ages, from young interns to experienced mid-career professionals and me, near the end of a long corporate career. Monika took the time to understand each of us and what we needed to do our best work. She built trust across distance and time zones, and we supported each other because of it. She encouraged new ideas and new ways of working. She had the courage to make difficult calls and stand behind them. She worked hard and expected a lot from the team, and she was always kind and fair. Monika always put the team ahead of herself. In difficult times she stayed steady, and people followed her. I recommend her highly.

I could rely on Monika to lead the market segment analyses, the monthly strategy meetings and overall marketing and communications initiatives across 10 APAC locations. Reliable, extremely results oriented, tenacious in the pursuit of excellence and a pleasure to work with.

Monika is the ultimate professional: deep domain expertise, smart, diligent and with an outstanding ability to guide you toward the actions and strategies that create value. I have fond memories of our collaboration. Highly recommended.

Monika is one individual who I find to be very unique. She displays great talent in providing a different perspective: extremely logical, systematic and sincere. It's not just her technical skills that impress me, it's her incredible warmth and approachable nature, valued by her team and peers who often rely on her to get the job done.

Monika is a professional in marketing and communication. She is focused, driven and dedicated in what her assignment is. I have been very impressed when we developed and made the user conference in Brisbane. We targeted to double the attendance with the right participants and we succeeded and even got way more than doubled. Monika was the driver and project manager for the content, communication, performance and follow up. She has the knowledge of what is on the agenda for the customers, she has/get the contacts for the right speakers and facilitates the performance. The same goes for the drive of our presence on the market and getting leads. I can highly recommend her.

It would be rare to find a more driven and motivated professional than Monika. A highly effective manager with a dedicated, meticulous approach that always meets or exceeds the highest standards. She is astute in conflict solving and has a tremendous ability to get all players on the same page by focusing on the primary common goal. An exceptional and inspiring marketing and communications leader.

A dedicated and passionate senior leader with extensive international experience. She excels in developing and implementing marketing and communications strategies that drive change, transform businesses, increase sales, and foster customer loyalty. A nurturing leader who combines enthusiasm for work with genuine care for her team's growth and wellbeing.

Monika has the keen ability to drive directed strategy across numerous markets with varying levels of maturity and objectives, a feat that is not easily accomplished. She is astute in budget decisions and has the discipline to conscientiously track the results and outcomes of marketing spend. A multi-level thinker who moves from high-level growth strategy to tactical execution.

I met Monika when we worked together at ABB. Monika has a strong understanding of inbound and outbound marketing with a keen ability to work both strategically and tactically as required. She uses data to make smart decisions and delivers an exceptional user experience. I was consistently impressed with Monika's sense of curiosity and intelligence. She's witty and has a great sense of humor too. And she probably doesn't know this, but Monika brought out the best in me. I respect her sensibilities very much.

She is a dedicated, enthusiastic and imaginative marketing professional and I would welcome the opportunity to work with her again.

Monika is a proven strategist and a savvy marketeer. She understands business and the drivers for success and can craft messaging to address it. Her skills are very transferable to general management and other senior roles.

A seasoned professional with a meticulous eye for detail. The events she has organised, the campaigns she has run and subsequent follow up are consistently of high quality. She works incredibly well under pressure and across cultural boundaries. I would have no hesitation in recommending her for senior marketing roles.

In the three years I worked with Monika she never failed to deliver on what she promised. An action and results oriented marketeer able to work at the strategic level but get things done. Her diligence and attention to detail ensure the projects she oversees run smoothly.

Monika's got that rare mix of being genuinely strategic and genuinely good with people, which almost nobody actually pulls off. She can sit in a room full of competing egos during a messy transformation and somehow get everyone rowing the same direction. She's also ahead of the curve, quietly building with AI agents while most people are still talking about it in theory.
