Equally strong in leading onshore and offshore IT teams, cultivating trusting relationships with C-level executives, and bridging the gap between business and technology.For example, I delivered new technologies and capabilities that drove profitable growth, captured significant savings, and improved the efficiency of several work processes for Globe Union, Inc., a global manufacturer and supplier. At Gerber Plumbing Fixtures, a Globe Union subsidiary, I revamped outdated, ineffective IT systems and processes, and drove the implementation of a new ERP system.Early in my career, I held high-profile hands-on roles with GE Industrial Solutions and Oracle, serving top clients and internal stakeholders.MY EXPERTISE INCLUDES:* IT Strategy & Leadership * Business Technology * IT Infrastructure * ERP Systems * Supply Chain* Logistics* Distribution* Manufacturing* System Development & Implementation * Service Delivery* IT Portfolio Management * Technology Architecture * IT Assessments * Business Intelligence * Program/Project Management * Operations * Organizational Management * Change Management * Process Improvement* Strategic Planning * Vendor/Supplier Management * Resource Planning * End-User Training * Cross-Functional Team Leadership
