Client Stories

“I engaged David Meighan of Acend to spearhead the transformation of content practices at Novartis, focusing on people, processes, governance, and technology. Our main goal was to instill a product-centric culture, shifting from rigid budget and timeline expectations to an agile approach centered on rapid value realization. David and Kyle's expertise, marked by their energy and immediate impact, proved invaluable in rescuing a critical program and instilling product management proficiency, making them highly recommended for any product transformation project.”
