Team Strategies
Meet the Founder
Jeanmarie Tenuto, MBA, PMP | Founder and CEO
Jeanmarie Tenuto founded Centaur Strategies in 1997, in the first wave of the commercial web, working alongside advertising agencies on the technology problems their clients could not solve alone. Nearly three decades later the work has the same core: find what is actually blocking growth, and build the system that fixes it.
She has led digital marketing, channel and transformation programs for B2B companies and enterprise teams. At Ogilvy she led the design of an account based program for a branded therapy in a specialist healthcare market. It reached 172 of 239 target health systems, including eight of the twelve that drove half the therapy’s volume. She has also led the web content integration of an acquired business inside a global life sciences company, and a two year, cross functional immersive technology implementation.
That background shapes how Centaur works. Most marketing problems turn out to be structural: an account list nobody agreed on, a form that submits to a database nobody monitors, analytics counting the wrong events. That is why every engagement starts with a written Growth Readiness Assessment, and why Jeanmarie leads each assessment personally.

I had the pleasure of working with Jeanmarie as part of an integration of web content for an acquired business to our business division within Thermo Fisher Scientific. These integration projects require a significant amount of coordination and collaboration across multiple functional groups, each with unique perspectives and specific requirements, and all against set timelines. Jeanmarie did a fantastic job of chaperoning the different teams towards a successful integration – always with great professionalism, seeking to understand, clarify, confirm, and inform.
For two years, I had the good fortune to partner with Jeanmarie on a highly complex, large, cross-functional immersive technology implementation. Her leadership, commitment, drive, and business acumen significantly impacted the outstanding success of this program. She resolved every obstacle, kept us on schedule, and ensured that our customers were delighted with the outcome of our combined efforts!
