Retired senior communications professional with an extensive background in strategic, supportive communications in large organizations – and a strong sense of enthusiasm and flexibility.I have a very diverse communications background, the kind of experience that takes maturity, leadership, delegation, decisiveness and the ability to keeping a cool head under pressure and varying demands.I’ve gained a reputation for tenacious issues management, synergistic stakeholder relations and for forging strong teams and mentoring the heck out of my staff. I am also trusting and flexible, and sometimes too stubborn to give up. I have deep experience in strategic communications, media relations and issues management. As a former Communications Manager and Communications Director in government, my experience includes communications project management, advising senior members of an organization, writing the full spectrum of communications materials as well as significant strategic communications planning.What you can’t see is the fun and leadership I bring to any group I work with. I build teams, I create linkages and I can work with experts, departments and leaders to show the value of a strong united communications approach. I also knuckle down and do the work!
