Marlene Gebauer

“Marlene is always ahead of the curve when it comes to legal technology. She know which solutions are coming to market and how they can help various practices, and she negotiates skillfully. She knows how to build and develop long-standing teams that deliver new technology in a cost-effective manner. ”

“Through working with Marlene Gebauer at Greenberg Traurig, I highly recommend Marlene. She has over 20 years of experience working in law firms. Marlene is highly qualified to work as a Chief Knowledge Officer, Director of Innovation, and Director of Research. Marlene is an effective manager who motivates the staff that report to her to achieve high goals. Her style of management is motivating as she exemplifies excellence in her skill set and work ethic. She also uses technology in problem solving and identifying solutions.”

“Marlene is a smart and dynamic person who is fun to work with. She is an asset to every team she joins.”

“I've worked with Marlene for 10+ years and our teams closely collaborated on many efforts related to user adoption of new and existing technologies. Marlene has the ability to bring strategic excellence and leadership to any efforts she is involved in. I have always been impressed with her executive presence not to mention her "The Geek in Review" podcast! Check it out if you have yet to do so! Any organization will benefit from having someone like Marlene Gebauer join their ranks! ”

“I was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to work with a Director as outstanding as Marlene Gebauer. I met Marlene 14 years ago, and I had the pleasure of working with her for the past year and a half. I was constantly impressed with her exceptional ability to lead and mentor a diverse team as ours. Her upbeat personality will leave you with a smile and she is also compassionate. I highly recommend Marlene for any position she chooses to pursue. ”

“I've worked with Marlene for over 14 years - the first three she was a peer manager, the last 11+ she was my director. I've witnessed her evolution from manager to director. Marlene's super power is taking chances -- she routinely hires people (including me) with no law firm experience, she allows her team the latitude to find interesting projects and pursue those, she values outcome over process, and she trusts her team to deliver. ”

“Marlene is great at using technology to assist with solving problems for traditional law firm clients and internal law firm clients, like myself. She assisted my team with daily reports to help us with the identification of certain issues in the conflicts/ compliance arena. ”

“It would be hard to overstate my recommendation for Marlene. She listens. She cares. She leads. She brings out the best in everyone around her.”

“I've worked with Marlene for 10+ years in the area of contract/vendor management as she was responsible for a very substantial budget at our Firm. In addition to her excellent skills in research/technology/innovation Marlene is a business person with attention to the bottom line. She is a seasoned professional, excellent communicator, team player/collabator. Marlene gets things done with a high level of excellence/quality. She strives to always improve operations and stay ahead of the trends, I highly recomment Marlene.”

“I have twice worked with Marlene: once when she was an intern at the Rutgers Law Library in Newark and now at Greenberg Traurig, LLP. I was impressed with Marlene's attention to detail and interest in law librarianship when she was a student. She completed all assignments and tasks on time and completely. At Greenberg Traurig I initially worked for her as a member of the Research Center and I have had the pleasure of seeing that she has developed into an outstanding manager and researcher able to balance the tasks of departmental management and strategic planning for the Research Center and the firm,. I currently work with her in managing the New York Research Center and find her a ready resource for discussing issues that arise in this office.”

“Marlene is grace under fire, a top manager in times of feast as well as famine. She is especially talented in virtual team management, able to create nimble and versatile groups and her communication skills across those virtual landscapes are admirable indeed!”

“Marlene is an incredibly professional manager who remains highly accessible, despite her formidable workload. She is unusually open to new ideas and empowers her staff to pursue initaitives that will benefit the department and the firm as a whole. Marlene maintains a clear-eyed vision for what our department is and for all that it can be. She never wavers from her goal of building a department that offers a thorough, efficient and high-quality work product to each and every one of its clients every time.”

“When I first began working at Greenberg Traurig, I reported directly to Marlene and found her to be an excellent manager. Currently I report to a Project Specialist who reports to Marlene. Even so, Marlene still remains very approachable. She is able to skillfully manage a very large department of researchers spread throughout the country. Marlene is able to motivate us as a team by creating a work environment that is both challenging and enjoyable. She is extremely knowledgable in the area of legal librarianship and provides a great role-model for the entire team.”
