“I had the pleasure of working with Mike Rooney while I was a Global Program Manager at Facebook. Mike was my direct manager and led a high performing team of learning Program Managers. He was exceptional in giving and seeking feedback, recognizing contributions, and setting clear expectations. Mike's ability to empower execution and foster collaboration with partners made our team work seamlessly and deliver results with excellence. Beyond all of the technical and partnership expertise he excels at, Mike’s biggest strength was his ability to show care and understand what mattered most to us. Through every 1:1, ping or post - Mike shows up with genuine care. It was this strength and his approach to supporting our team that truly allowed me to do my best work and grow as a leader and Program Manager. Mike's leadership style created an environment that promoted growth, creativity, and productivity, ensuring long-term success for the program management team. He is an empowering leader who trusts his team members to make decisions and take ownership of their work. Overall, I would gladly work with Mike again in the future. He is a leader who sets up his teams for long-term success by fostering a positive work environment, empowering execution, and ensuring that his team members have the necessary resources and support to achieve their goals. I highly recommend Mike Rooney for any leadership role, and I'm confident that he will make a valuable contribution to any organization.”
