Bio - Jennifer W. Martineau, Ph.D.

Jennifer Martineau serves as Group Director of Global Research at the Center for Creative Leadership, a not-for-profit research and educational institution with headquarters in Greensboro, NC. In this role, she has the pleasure and honor of representing the fine work of the Center's research, psychometrics, evaluation, and innovation around the world. At the Center since 1993, Jennifer played a foundational role in establishing its evaluation practice through the creation of a 360-degree evaluation assessment, designing and launching an evaluation framework used to guide evaluation studies, and serving as lead evaluator on many leadership development evaluation projects. Her clients include international for-profit and not-for-profit organizations, school systems, and government agencies.

Jennifer's keen interest in the integration of evaluation with instructional design and the application of knowledge to practice led to a role at CCL focused on design and evaluation. In that role, she led and participated in initiatives such as building the design skills of CCL faculty, creating processes and systems to support more effective and efficient development and launch of CCL programs, reviewing the Center's entire (known and unknown) portfolio to identify strengths and gap areas, and establishing a new integrated portfolio strategy that will enable CCL to make increasingly better decisions about what portfolio development investments to make.

Jennifer earned a doctoral degree in industrial and organizational psychology from the Pennsylvania State University. She is a member of the American Evaluation Association, the American Society for Training and Development, and the Society for Industrial and Organizational Psychology, and serves on committees and task forces in these organizations. Jennifer is a regular presenter at national and international professional conferences, is published in both peer-reviewed and other publications, and has recently co-edited CCL's The Handbook of Leadership Development Evaluation and the second edition of CCL's Evaluating the Impact of Leadership Development.
