Hi, I'm
Colleen Reeves.
Global Business Planning & Development Fortune 500 Executive
About Me
As an energetic beauty brand business planning and development executive, I develop strategies that unlock marketplace success. I am recognized for developing insightful strategies that are rooted in deep consumer trends, flawlessly executed, and able to reap winning results. Leveraging my experience in strategy and new product launch planning, and sales development, I efficiently assess business conditions and apply past proven best practices. In my next role, I will leverage my passion and skills as a senior business development team member driving superior performance. I will apply my leadership at both strategic and operational levels to create new growth opportunities.
Over the past few years, I have been consulting for my consulting firm, Blue Skies Consulting, Colleen M. Reeves, LLC. I am energetic, kind, and dedicated, working well in a team-driven environment. My top three skills are Business Planning, Brand Management, and Project Management. For the past 20 years, I have spent my career at Fortune 500 companies in various executive planning roles and have contributed to several highly profitable eCommerce brands. I enjoy spending my spare time volunteering at non-profits such as Vetwork, of which I am now the Executive Board Treasurer.

"To me, leadership is about encouraging people. It's about stimulating them. It's about enabling them to achieve what they can achieve — and to do that with a purpose."
