“Jamie and I worked together as peers for six years. He is a senior HR/Corporate Administrative professional, with strong business acumen. His breadth of experience in global high tech markets during turbulent times is obvious. I trust his judgment. Jamie has the ability to attract talented people and to guide their individual and collective development. The HR / Facilities team he assembled at NMS was the best I've worked with in 25+ years in mid-sized and Fortune 100 high tech companies.” April 27, 2009 Herb Shumway SVP Operations & Finance, CFO NMS Communications |

“I had the good fortune to work for Jamie Toale for four and a half years when I was a human resources director at NMS Communications. In my view, Jamie is the consummate human resources executive. A strategic thinker and strong relationship-builder, Jamie was a welcomed business partner to NMS leadership. He was able to secure a place at the table not only for himself as the senior vice president of human resources but also for his staff. His business acumen and organizational savvy, along with his outstanding people skills, created an environment in which we could do our best work. A staffing model that enabled us to double the size of the workforce in eleven months and a best-in-class rewards & recognition strategy that earned NMS a spot on the Boston Business Journal’s 50 Best Places to Work list are just two examples of HR’s accomplishments under his leadership. In addition, Jamie was a key player in NMS’ acquisition strategy, driving the successful integration of several new businesses around the globe. If I ever have the opportunity to work for Jamie again, it would be a pleasure and a privilege.” January 2010 Jim Brennan HR Director NMS Communications Reported to Jamie |
