Tony served as a Senior Account Manager at Field Nation until 2019, when he accepted a leadership position at an interactive media agency. In December of 2021, he rejoined the Field Nation team as a Product Manager focusing on Field Nation\u2019s enterprise offering.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI was at a point in my career where I was looking to go a different route and lean into my passion for creation and collaboration.\u201d He says of his journey back to the company. \u201cWhen I was at Field Nation the first time around, I saw up close how interesting the product side of things was. Taking something from an idea, proving it out, getting feedback, building a plan before you launch\u2013\u2013that really excited me.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He researched the fundamentals of product management and took courses on the subject. He sought the advice of a former Field Nation colleague, EVP of Strategy Wael Mohammed, who reaffirmed that Tony\u2019s background in handling accounts would make him a strong candidate when the right product management opportunity came along.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As luck would have it, that opportunity soon arose within Field Nation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Upon rejoining the team, Tony immediately felt at home in his new role.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIt felt great to come back and help clients in a new way\u2013\u2013<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">as a creator<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Specifically, there was a sense of relief in being able to explore this new domain in a familiar and supportive environment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI\u2019m glad I was able to make the switch into product management in a place like Field Nation.\u201d He says. \u201cField Nation has a great collaborative environment where you can present an idea to any colleague or executive and they&#8217;ll say, \u2018Okay, prepare the next steps, prepare your plan, let&#8217;s vet this out.\u2019 That\u2019s really cool.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This impression of Field Nation\u2019s culture stayed with Tony even during his time away from the company.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cDuring the pandemic, every company had to adjust, and some companies did it better than others. Keeping in touch with people at Field Nation, it was good to see that the company didn\u2019t lose its openness or curiosity.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Though his responsibilities have changed, many of Tony\u2019s favorite aspects of life at Field Nation have stayed the same. For example, the weekly \u201cCheers\u201d meeting, where employees can give shoutouts to their coworkers, remains a bright spot in his schedule.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cCheers adapted really well to a virtual context. It\u2019s great to see how close the Bangladesh and Minneapolis teams are, despite being thousands of miles apart.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thinking back to his decision to return to the Field Nation, Tony remembers looking forward to what\u2019s next.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI knew how growth-driven Field Nation is and how well their culture pairs with the company\u2019s ambition. I felt it was a great opportunity to expand into a new area.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In his spare time, Tony enjoys barbecue, bourbon, and spending time with his wife and kids.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThere are acting and dancing and piano and swimming lessons to get to. It keeps me busy.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The family has also developed their interest in skiing over the past few years, which the kids are enthusiastic about. Much like their father, they aren\u2019t afraid of trying new things.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Faces of Field Nation is designed to lend some insight into how we operate and what makes Field Nation tick.
