    SUMMARY A Mentor once told me, "if you want to be valuable to anyone or any organization, find a way to get sh%* done." Pretty sound advice, albeit it was my Dad, & I think I was 10 years old at the time. Since then I have focused on 3 key areas to drive success (what I still hold to be true in business today): relationships, accountability, & communication. What I Bring: 17+ years in Business Operations. I live & breathe for process & organization. I have a unique ability to stay calm under pressure & organize even the most chaotic of environments. My specialty is building & implementing operational strategies to maximize efficiency, growth, & profitability. Let me at the data! I'll tell you how productive the team is, how profitable the accounts are, how efficient the services are, & how to improve it all. Motto: If opportunity doesn't knock, we'll build our own door. What I Value: - The people we surround ourselves with & the relationships we build are the single biggest factor to success. - Building a culture focused on clarity, communication, shared values, & ACTION. - Staying curious, being a continuous learner, & mentoring others to develop future leaders. - Setting goals, bringing my positive energy every single day, & being successful while having fun together.

    I am a governance and communications professional with over twenty years of experience assisting organisations to deliver transformational change. After graduating with a Bachelor of Commerce from the esteemed University of Wollongong, I embarked on a professional career in consultancy. I began with the global all-rounder Accenture and moved to the smaller specialist firm Effective Governance. My empathetic nature, coupled with a deep understanding of the relevant issues, allowed me to connect with individuals on a profound level. Through my MBA studies, I was particularly drawn to addressing issues such as employee engagement, cultural change, and leadership communications. To gain greater experience implementing solutions to these issues, I joined the Queensland Department of Transport and Main Roads in 2004 as a Principal Advisor. Here, I delivered innovative programs that provided education and mentorship for the leadership team, covering the areas of governance, strategic management, performance management and compliance. As a freelance consultant, I am regularly called upon to provide governance, strategy and communications advice to clients across the globe, working closely with executives to enable corporate change. I specialise in governance, strategic management, performance management, issues analysis, change management, corporate communications (including grants, business cases and annual reports) and facilitation. Here is a testimonial from my most recent client. ROB TAYLOR HEAD OF COMMUNICATIONS, RSL LIFECARE NOVEMBER 2023 Belinda has been a contracted professional writer for my communications team for almost 18 months and in that time has proven to be an invaluable asset. She is a consummate professional that can write in multiple styles for a broad range of audiences, and is able to her to jump straight into projects and make a considerable impact from the get-go. Belinda is trustworthy and beyond reproach with a very solid work ethic. I have always had absolute trust in her abilities to excel in whatever job she is assigned, and her work is always the highest standard possible. She is able to quickly research for backgrounding and is extremely experienced in all forms of corporate communication. She has handled everything from CEO announcements and speeches, our Annual Report, federal government project bids, to stock standard internal communications. To be honest, I cannot recommend Belinda more highly and could ramble on for ages as to her incredible skill, experience and lovely nature. She is a delight to work with and I doubt you could ever find anyone better for your communications or writing projects.

    Behind every creative person, every small and growing business, is an Alfred. There comes a point in the development of every business where if an organizational overhaul doesn't take place, scaling isn't possible. That's where I come in. You might know exactly what you want, or you might have a general sense of unease. Many business owners know there are things that can be done better, but they aren't sure where to start and don't have the time to figure it out. I've spent years honing a carefully curated (but extensive) list of skills by working with small business teams and as a freelancer. These various experiences have given me invaluable insights into different industries, processes, tools and departments. I've had my hands in dozens of different projects and this has allowed me to analyze businesses and develop custom solutions. I've also worked really hard to become acclimated to as much technology as possible. I'm certified in Asana, Notion, Make.com, Quickbooks, Trainual and Gorgias. I'm expert-level in Clickup, Trello, Monday, Processstreet, Jira, Confluence, Hubspot, Hubstaff, Harvest, Front, and many more. Some of my specialty areas include: - Day to day direct executive support, project management or operations management - Acting as team communication leader and project manager ensuring efficient information sharing - Process development - Analyzing, streamlining and automating workflows - Tool recommendations, data migration, set up and training - Financials (Quickbooks, data transfers, budgets, action plans) I am a certified Quickbooks Pro Advisor! I am certified to help you optimize your usage of Quickbooks. - I specialize in choosing, setting up and executing project management software. I am well versed in all major options. I am also an Asana Together Certified Pro and Notion Certified. - Developing, launching and leading initiatives regarding efficiency, organization, team building, marketing, hiring, and more. - Resource management including HR, payroll and employee engagement - Long term goal planning, and breaking down those goals into achievable projects with specific steps and due dates - Putting out fires, reducing bottlenecks, and keeping things from falling through the cracks Certified in: Asana, Notion, Gorgias, Make.com, Trainual and Quickbooks Experienced in: Airtable Calendly Canva Clickup Clockify Confluence Dubsado Etsy Google Data Studio Google Products Harvest Hector Hexnode Highlevel Hive Hootsuite Hubspot Hubstaff Insightly Loomly Monday.com Office/Microsoft Products Paymo Post Affiliate Pro Processstreet Reclaim Shopify Sortly Sunsama Todoist Trello Various form tools (google forms, tidyform, notionforms, etc.) Verious email marketing tools (Mailchimp, infusionsoft, constant contact, keap, etc.) WordPress Wrike Zendesk Zoho And even more industry specific software (NutriAdmin, ServiceNow, ConnectWise, etc.)

    I have 15+ years experience creating exciting products and driving execution. As an "expert-vetted" by UpWork, I'm proud to say that I'm in the top 1% of all UpWorkers globally. I'm a Project Manager because I love working with enthusiastic and driven leaders to evolve their businesses and get to the next level of revenue and growth, and by having fun doing it. This is my craft! Every business is different, so my discovery process involves co-developing a bespoke solution that specifically fits your team's needs. There are many powerful tools in my toolkit, including: (1) ClickUp (2) Software Development (3) Problem Solving for product market fit (4) Systems and Process Execution I'm also a business owner and entrepreneur, so I understand the challenges many business owners face. It can be a lonely endeavor, so I also have a goal to make leveling up your business a fun and memorable experience. I've also been asked to take over projects in poor health. My unique "project health check" can help unlock immediate insights and action items that will actually make a difference. Some questions to get you started: ♦ Do you find your projects often going "off the rails" in terms of budget or schedule? ♦ Is your plate so full that you are often unsure of where to start? ♦ Does managing a team feel stressful and more a burden than an asset? ♦ Have you been burned by a vendor or agency that failed to deliver what you expected? ♦ Would you like to have someone at your side that you can truly trust? I should add that with every engagement, I lead with our team's values. This means that everyone on our team lives: organization, honesty, wellness, reliability, experimentation, and service. Our values are what help us execute with the level of precision and skill that is necessary to carry out our work. One of the biggest insights I've had over the last year is the importance of strategic partners. I hope that you'll be more than just a client -- but actually a partner -- as I believe in the old adage: "a rising tide lifts all boats." I'd love to partner with you to help ideate and execute on your plan. If that involves software, I have an in-house team that can do that. If it involves running a team, we can do that. If it involves thoughtful analysis and research, we can do that. For wherever you're trying to get to, I'll help you get there. FAVORITE TOOLS: PM: ClickUp, GSuite, Slack, GitHub, Zapier Methodology: Scrum Design: Figma, WebFlow Content: InDesign, Illustrator, Premiere E-Commerce: Hubspot, Shopify, Wix Stack: Mongo, Express, React, Node Analytics: Sentry, Firebase, Mixpanel HYDRANT AGENCY OPTIONS: I'm fortunate to have a deep team of talent that works with me, including a strong stable of Project Managers, Product Managers, Engineers, Designers, and more. Some of our best projects come to us as partners, and we help them grow with multiple resources on their project. Since we're Project Managers first and foremost, we manage the team seamlessly, driving towards your desired business outcomes. Notably, we helped an enterprise client take a 45-slide PowerPoint deck, and through our team helped them get to $1M revenue within 12 months. That's the power of teamwork! NEXT STEPS: Well, what are you waiting for? I'd love to talk about your project and help you bring some peace to the chaos of growing a business.

She'll take a vision you share with her and make it a reality, but even better than you could have articulated. She's precise in her work, with a critical eye for detail, both in terms of editing and documenting but also in scoping out longterm projects. She is able to balance holding people accountable, while being adaptable to changes as they inevitably arise. Working with Aja over the past year and a half has been a privilege, and I could not recommend her higher for any project." ~ Lacey J Cope; Head of Coaching & Development, Insight Data Science ____________ 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟"The ability to methodically think through difficult decisions and swiftly take action is an invaluable quality that’s extremely hard to teach, but something I look for in just about everyone I work with - Aja has this in spades. Her superpower is the ability to take the wheel of a veering ship and get it back on course. In particular, she took a developer project that was months overdue (aka a sinking ship) and reconciled / closed it out within several weeks. Coupled with her business acumen, strong self-motivation and leadership capabilities, she’s a unique talent and a genuine joy to work with." ~Jonathan Barshop; Co-founder of Lemonpie.fm - - - - - EXPERIENCE - - - - - * 3+ years fractional COO experience managing B2B consulting firm * 15+ years Project Management experience in Fortune 500 corporations * 15+ years Business Systems Analyst experience implementing and testing Human Resources systems - - - - - TOP SOFT SKILLS - - - - - ~ Prioritization ~ Disciplined ~ Driven ~ Self-starter ~ Initiator ~ Critical Thinker ~ Researcher - - - - - MORE ABOUT ME - - - - - I am passionate about letting my work speak for me.

I am an experienced ex-Corporate Business Systems Analyst and Project Manager with a focus on business systems. I, now, use my professional and personal experiences to support coaches, authors and therapists launch their thought-projects! My knowledge runs the gamut, my focus and zone of genius are in taking your idea, designing a project plan and executing on it through: ➡️ Project management: design, execute, manage (including team management) ➡️ Systems management: implementation, testing and administration ➡️ Process management: design, documentation and training I have worked remotely for 15+ years and understand the dynamics of remote work in order to have clear communication and goal accomplishment as a dispersed team. I am your Project Management Conductor. You work with me and I manage the rest! Message me today and let me know what project you have in mind. I'll work with you to identify how I can best help you bring it to life! - - - - - ABOUT YOU - - - - - YOU... ~ have a systems/process issue that needs solving/creating/administering asap. **I'll jump in to understand where you are and where you want to get to. I'll create a plan to let you know my suggestions on how to get there and then I'll get to work DOING IT.** ~ put together courses/fellowships/programs and that's your focus! You need someone who can manage the details to help you get it "out there" fully, in your vision, and set up the processes so you can run it repeatedly with less work to do each time. **Details are my thing; I can't help it! I also love courses and fellowships/programs; they fascinate me. I will help you do the administrative, content creation, web and systems tasks needed to make your course seamless and easily repeatable. ~ are a big picture visionary and the details just aren't your thing. You know to make it happen you need someone paying attention to the details. **I will help you think through, plan out and implement the details. I will also help you level-set to figure out what can be done now and what should be done later. ~ work in a department in a large company, own a small business or are a solopreneur! You desire to stay focused on your "work zone" and get someone else to help with the other work. **I have maneuvered in these spaces and get how they all work. By working in my work zone, I get to help you stay in your zone! I'm also a great sounding board! I will collaborate with you so we can both do this effectively and make it enjoyable. ~ You understand the dynamics of working with contractors and respect those dynamics. **I have to say this here, unfortunately, because I see it a lot on Upwork. Contractors are not tied to time blocks or locations nor do they need to provide personal emails or phone numbers. I believe in high integrity for both parties. I love clients who meet w/me (regularly) then set me free to work! I look forward to working with you!

I have shared stages with leading thought leaders like, Sir Richard Branson (from the Virgin Group), Bob Proctor (from the movie The Secret) and many others. I see a lot of what works and what doesn’t work and I believe you should pay close attention to Seb if you want to transform your life and business!” JEFF SLAYTER, co-founder of J&K Industry Rockstar System "Sebastian is a contemporary and global professional who focuses on achieving great outcomes for all stakeholders. His background in training and learning development has given him excellent skills in mobilising groups to achieve a shared vision."
