Evan Hannemann
Vice President, Principal Program Manager, Microsoft

I am an innovation and strategy lead supporting large organizations to change the world. My current career focus is bringing new technology to Hyperscale Cloud Infrastructure.

Each person is exactly that – a whole person. Mentorship is about aligning values, characteristics, and passions with life. It’s more than just a career.

As a mentor, I excel at…

• Technology innovation
• Goal identification
• Pathways to success
• New technology innovation
• Navigating career changes

When I have free time, I…

am outdoors, with my pup, or on the water. I love experiencing all this world has to offer.

The best career decision I’ve made was…

Follow my gut and not turn down a “temporary” assignment – they could open doors you haven’t even dreamed about.

I find inspiration…

in seeing people succeed and achieve their goals.

I describe myself as…

growing, spontaneous, and free – yet grounded and focused.

My motto/tagline is…

Embrace the opportunity and trust your instinct.

My favorite book is…

Blink by Malcolm Gladwell.
