I build tangible solutions, working the entire project lifecycle from initial concept through implementation. I do not simply make recommendations. I work side-by-side with the client team doing whatever is needed to achieve the project goals. Do You Need to Address Experience Gaps in Your Team? I’m a good fit if you need an experienced day-to-day leader for a strategic initiative (re-engineering, M&A integration, major system project, etc.). Or, I can coach an internal manager leading a project for the first time and who lacks the practical experience. Must Your Project Succeed? In thirty years, all my projects have been deployed. I haven't had any crash and burn. I accomplish this by using comprehensive stage gate methodologies appropriate for the project: product development, Six Sigma, software development lifecycle, software package implementation, M&A integration, etc. I marry the overall approach with an Agile software development methodology for the software build. I strongly believe that for a project to be successful, the Agile software development has to be incorporated into an overall project approach addressing business process improvement and change management.
