JILL CZERWINSKI
CROWE HORWATH
TITLE: Senior Manager
AWARD CATEGORY: Client Service
AGE: 33
At only 33, Jill Czerwinski is already a consulting veteran. With more than 12 years of consulting experience and thought leadership in data protection, she's assisted clients with the daunting task of preventing data breaches.
In fact, most of her client engagements were initiated because of an incident, such as a data breach or security breakdown. With her help, they have revamped their programs to prevent recurrence.
"I am most proud of my clients for which I have influenced transformative change," Czerwinski says. "I am the most proud of the client engagements where I was able to revolutionize thinking, processes and results."
And the work she's doing couldn't be more important—or timely. In the wake of breaches such as the recent one at Target, Czerwinski says it's important that companies are managing their information security and their third party vendors. "The ability to influence positive change in corporate responsibility excites me," she says.
Meanwhile, the recognition and affirmation the award brings with it also excites Czerwinski. "After 12 years working in consulting this award reaffirms that I'm on the right track in my career," she says. "I am particularly excited to receive this award in the category of 'Client Service.' I think it is very important for consultants to remember that our clients' happiness and success is the best measurement of our success."
Success that has been aided, she says, by the support she receives day in and day out. "This has come from the exceptional leadership team at Crowe, from the talented group of people I work with every day, as well as from my personal support system: my husband, Adam, my parents and our family."
