Julie Diehl
Managing Director, National Leader of Supply Chain Practice
Alvarez & Marsal
Excellence in Energy
As the former vice president of global strategic sourcing for Pennzoil-Quaker State, Julie Diehl can instantly put herself in her client's shoes. That's been one of the keys to her success.
"What's really helped me be successful is that I've spent all of my career—except for the last seven, in industry. Having worked in industry, and being a former buyer of consulting, I'm very sensitive and very much aware of what I liked when I was a client. I always try to put my industry hat on when I'm serving a client. I recognize how much consultants cost and am acutely aware of the value we need to deliver," Diehl says. "As a consultant, I want to build trust. And when I do, I get build-on work from almost every client I've worked for. Once you take that relationship to the level of a friendship, it's easy to build on and on."
