🟡🟠 Reliable project manager who delivers results to take your project and organization to the next level and gives you back your time. ▶️ Open for Long Term projects. 🏆 I strive to improve human collaboration by showing empathy, leadership, sharing experience, and knowledge to make the future more predictable and less disturbing. Does this appeal to you? ✅ Send a message to start a discussion Here are some cases: 1️⃣Got project out of crisis in 2 months, improved customer satisfaction and NPS, as well as increased release frequency by 35%. I established communication between customer support and internal departments, structured and standardized bug reports, built prioritization and monitoring system for development team, and covered product with automation tests. 2️⃣ Reduced OPEX by $5,000 monthly by shutting down unused environments, optimizing Digital Ocean costs, and canceling tools and subscriptions. 3️⃣ Managed project budgets over $500K. 4️⃣ Increased velocity by 16% by optimizing team processes through clear, transparent processes, introduction of SOPs, prioritization system, and “start-finishing and finish-starting” approach that freed 5️⃣ Coordinated a team of 15-40 people across 7 different time zones I believe trust inside a team is the key to incredible results. My project manager experience says that trust and loyalty are necessary to build strong relationships. I definitely believe small teams can achieve big results. 🤝 The way I keep trust inside a team is by providing clear feedback, being transparent in communication as a project manager, building as simple processes as possible, and encouraging people to make decisions. Does this seem right to you? Value I provide: 🔶 Lead for end-to-end delivery of multiple engineering programs, ensuring adherence to scope, budget, timelines, and quality standards as an agile project manager, agile scrum master, digital project manager, operations manager, and Fractional COO. 🔶 As a project manager, I participate in strategy development, decision making, project scheduling, and team management in order to provide support to teams by creating user stories and product management when needed. 🔶 All administrative support, management consulting, operations, and project workflows are my responsibilities in the digital project manager role. I report directly to the CEO, sometimes act as an executive assistant, virtual assistant, Fractional COO, and provide management consulting. 🔶 As a project manager and operations manager, I build project workflows, SDLC processes, process infographics, SOPs, and different flow charts to improve communications and team management. 🔶 Usually, I'm in charge of decision making, project management, team management, communications, management consulting, business operations, project scheduling, and project workflows in a project manager role for more than 50 projects I participated in. 🔶 To increase the transparency of the team's work, as a agile project manager, I build project workflows and process infographics as well as a dashboard with such metrics as WIP, Throughput, Cumulative Diagram, Time in Status, Cycle Time, Sprint Issue Balance, Sprint Velocity Chart, and Burn-down chart within Eazy BI, Jira, Asana, Clickup, Trello or any other tools. Updated: May 22nd ✅ Send me a message to discuss your request 🔺My areas of responsibility are project management, people management, maintaining the scrum framework, and operations, which is helpful for stakeholder management. 🔺 I care about Project Scheduling, plan the team allocation, and resource allocation as an agile project manager to successfully deliver a project. 🔺 Often, when I join a project, I do the process audit, and together with a team, we improve project workflows, processes, and process infographics, which help us to achieve project objectives, making me a reliable project manager. 🔺 I strive to improve communications to achieve fast decision making, which is crucial for a project manager, as well as I suggest ideas and implement changes for business operations and operations analytics 🔺 All CEOs I worked with were interested in my experience; they asked for management consulting and work on operations, which is more like a Fractional COO position, Chief Operating Officer, or Chief of Staff. 🔺 I love to participate in strategy development and execute it as a project manager, operations manager, or Fractional COO to achieve the project objectives. 🔺 I take care of product management, user stories, and task creation in Jira, ClickUp, Trello, Asana, and other tools to implement a product roadmap, achieve project objectives, and deliver milestones, to make business analyst life easier. ✅ Send a message to start a discussion What kind of person are you comfortable working with?
