“Because Wendi embodies so many amazing qualities, it is tough to figure out exactly where to start. First and foremost Wendi is a true visionary leader. At Yext, she created from scratch an enterprise division which is now responsible for more revenue than any other business channel and which boasts an astounding roster of Fortune 500 clients - all in less than 3 years. Secondly, Wendi is a developer of talent. Never in my career have I come across someone so dedicated to helping people reach their potential both professionally and personally. And finally Wendi is an operations mastermind. Finding the balance between process and chaos at a start-up that is growing as aggressively as Yext is no small feat. Wendi has done this with epic precision. I am so honored to have worked for her and will carry with me the lessons she has taught for many years to come.”
