5 questions with Jenine Renaud
It’s one thing to believe in a platform. It’s another to launch, expand and select it—three separate times, in three different organizations, with your own reputation on the line. That’s the position Jenine Renaud was in before she ever joined OneVizion.
Today, she brings that same accountability into her role, helping customers move from implementation to impact. In this conversation, she unpacks how trust is actually built, where the real work happens, and why the best questions start after go-live.
1. What made OneVizion feel like the right fit for you?
I had been on a launch team, expansion team and selection team for three different companies over the course of my career, so I knew firsthand what it could do in real operating environments—not just in theory. I saw how it held up under pressure, across different teams, and in situations where there were a lot of moving parts and competing priorities.
What stood out to me every time was the combination of reliability, flexibility, and ease of use—but just as important, I could consistently justify the total cost of ownership. It wasn’t a hard sell internally because the value showed up in how teams worked, how decisions got made, and how quickly we could move.
At this stage in my career, I wanted to be somewhere I could apply that experience in a more intentional way. It mattered to me that I was representing something that genuinely improves how people operate day to day—not just adding another layer of complexity.
At OneVizion, I get to sit at the intersection of product innovation, customer experience, and market insight. I’m able to bring what I’ve learned as a customer into conversations internally, and then take what we’re building back out into the market. That feedback loop is where real progress happens, and it’s where I feel like I can have the greatest impact.
2. How do you build trust with someone who's skeptical going into a conversation?
I also try to find a shared experience or a common thread. That could be something operational, something about how teams function, or even just a similar challenge we’ve both seen before. That helps shift the dynamic from “vendor and buyer” to two people working through a problem together.
From there, trust really comes down to consistency. Do what you say you’re going to do. Follow through. Be honest about what’s realistic and what isn’t.
A lot of people think trust is built in the initial conversation, but in my experience, it’s built in everything that happens after—how you show up over time, especially when things aren’t perfect.
3. What’s a part of this work that doesn’t get enough credit?
All of the work that happens behind the scenes—ongoing conversations, relationship-building, internal coordination, and the small decisions that keep things moving forward.
There’s a lot of invisible effort that goes into aligning teams, managing expectations, and making sure that what’s promised actually gets delivered in a way that works for the customer. That doesn’t always show up in a slide deck or a demo, but it’s often what determines whether something is successful or not.
It’s also the part of the job that requires the most consistency. You can’t do it once and be done—you have to keep showing up, keep communicating, and keep reinforcing alignment across different groups. That’s where a lot of the real value is created.
4. What’s something customers consistently tell you once they’re up and running with OneVizion?
Once customers are up and running, the conversation usually shifts pretty quickly from implementation to optimization. Instead of asking, “How do we use this?” they start asking, “What else can we do?”
They’ll ask what they might be missing, whether there’s a better way to structure something, or how other organizations are approaching similar challenges. That’s when they start to realize the platform isn’t just supporting one process—it can support how they think about their operations more broadly.
That’s also where our domain expertise becomes really important. We’re not just helping them use the platform—we’re helping them make better decisions about how they operate, based on what we’ve seen across other customers and use cases.
Those conversations are often where the most meaningful improvements happen, because they’re no longer just solving for today—they’re thinking about how to scale and evolve.
5. If you could sum up what OneVizion means to the people it serves, how would you put it?
We’re more than a platform—we’re a team that’s genuinely invested in our customers’ success.
When you work with OneVizion, you’re not just getting access to technology. You’re getting a group of people who are approachable, experienced, and willing to engage in the details with you. We don’t just hand something over and walk away—we stay involved, we listen, and we adapt alongside our customers as their needs evolve.
There’s also a level of partnership that develops over time. We understand their business, their constraints, and their goals, and that allows us to be more proactive in how we support them.
At the end of the day, we’ve built the business around a simple idea: if our customers aren’t successful, we’re not successful. That alignment is what drives how we show up every day.
