Greenwood will continue to report to Founder and Managing Partner, Dr. Ebbie Parsons, III, and provide day-to-day operational, administrative, and business development leadership for the Yardstick Management team while additionally ushering in her own unique set of people management skills to lead the organization into its next phase of professional growth.
