Hello there, Achiever! Can I ask you something? Have you ever felt the frustration of watching your projects spiral out of control or dealing with clients who seem to always be dissatisfied with your team's performance? Have you experienced the constant pressure of having to revise your plans and schedules repeatedly, only to end up with no clear insight into your team's availability or when the work will be finished? Have you sensed how these challenges, along with stakeholder-related roadblocks and scheduling issues, stand in the way of your project's success? Let's face it: It's often when our projects hit rock bottom that we realize the true value of effective project management, scheduling, and resource management. It's in those moments of frustration that we scramble to find the right people, and solutions, and desperately try to mend client relationships. But what if there was a better way? I believe that starting our projects off on the right foot is key. By bringing in experienced project management leaders early on, establishing clear and realistic project schedules, defining scope, and implementing a solid process to manage inevitable changes, we can set ourselves up for success from the beginning. Do you agree? With over 13 years of experience, I've dedicated myself to helping clients and organizations overcome these challenges. Whether it's implementing best practices using tools like Microsoft Project, Smartsheet, Trello, and Jira, or rescuing projects and relationships on the brink of collapse, I've been there every step of the way. ✅ In several projects involving system customization and software development within GIS Consulting for utilities, I successfully salvaged projects and repaired relationships that were on the brink of failure. ✅ By implementing effective stakeholder management, project scheduling, and change management strategies in a healthcare custom software implementation program, I was able to generate additional returns on investment, ultimately tripling the original budget. ✅ Furthermore, I successfully navigated major healthcare projects through the challenges posed by the uncertainties of COVID-19, ensuring a smooth transition and successful go-live. As an Achiever myself, I'm committed to helping you achieve your goals. So, what can I do for you? Let's turn your project challenges into success stories. In addition, I bring the following: ❗️ Certified project manager with over 13 years of experience, holding credentials such as PMP, CSM, CSPO, and PRINCE2 🎓 Expertise in various project management methodologies including Waterfall, Agile (Scrum and Kanban), and Hybrid approaches 🦉 Strong technical and business acumen, specializing in business analysis, requirements gathering, stakeholder management, and customer success 💻 Proficient in leading custom software development, systems implementation, SaaS, and IT infrastructure projects 🛠️ Skilled user of project management tools including Jira, Confluence, SharePoint, Microsoft Project, and others 🎭 Experienced in vendor management, procurements, and handling requests for information, proposals, and quotations (RFI, RFP, RFQs) 🎯 Proven track record in strategic negotiation, facilitating favorable outcomes in customer-facing pre-sales roles and contract creation 👨 Successful driver of organizational change management initiatives, ensuring smooth transitions and achieving project objectives 😀 Expertise in managing cross-cultural project teams across multiple continents, promoting effective communication and collaboration, and mitigating risks 🏆 Industry experience spans Insurance (Property and Casualty), IT/Technology (Hardware and Software), Healthcare IT (including FHIR standards and custom software implementations), Higher Education, GIS (Geographic Information Systems), and FinTech 💡 Proficiency in creating project plans, Gantt charts, backlogs, and implementing project management and PMO processes 🤝 Specialization in designing and implementing reports, project management plans, budgets, communication plans, and change management plans 🕵️ Ability to conduct stakeholder analysis and relationship management, ensuring project success ⚡ Emphasis on continuous process improvement and attention to detail in managing technology-driven projects and people-focused initiatives Expert Project Manager | PMP | CSM | CSPO | Prince 2 | 13 Years of Experience | Microsoft Project | Smartsheet | Jira | Trello | Microsoft Visio | Lucidcharts | MIRO | TFS | Azure DevOPS | Business Analysis | Requirements Management | Technlogy Projects | Business Process Improvement | Customer Management | Agile | Waterfall | Hybrid | SCRUM | Kanban | Vendor Management | Scorecards | RFI | RFP | RFQ | PMO | BPMN | Microsoft Teams | Slack | SharePoint | Mictosoft Project Online | Microsoft PPM
