Bethany Sutton, Pmp is a Sr. Director, Strategic Programs at Creyon Bio. She possess expertise in scope management, risk management, sequencing, biotechnology, life sciences and 16 more skills. Colleagues describe her as "I worked with Bethany on one of her large projects, which introduced a major new feature to the company's complete line of sequencing instruments. I was the Lead Technical Writer, and was responsible for updating and delivering the major end-user documentation for all but the smallest of these instruments. Bethany was a fantastic Project Manager: she kept us all working together; she would call to see if you needed anything to do your work; there were regular status updates and meetings; and she would ask you to identify any risk factors so that she could mitigate them. But the one thing that really stood out to me, and the thing I most respected her for, was that even in the face of potential schedule slips from development, she kept the rest of us driving to the original deadline. I think of it as a train, and a lot of PM's will say, "Well, the front car is slowing down, so I suppose we have to let the whole train slow down." Not so with Bethany. She kept all the other cars running at top speed. This allowed the rest of us to deliver on time, and I believe it helped drive development to minimize their own slip, knowing that people were not just sitting waiting behind them. As a result, the project came in just about exactly on time, certainly with a bogglingly small slip for a project of this size. I'd never seen anything like it. I enjoyed working this way, as it prevented me from losing time on other critical projects that were waiting in the wings. I recommend Bethany to any company that wants to deliver its projects absolutely on time." and "I had the pleasure of working with Bethany on several projects at Illumina and in my opinion she is one of the best project managers. She is always organized and on top of the issues whether they are software, hardware or chemistry related. She is good at driving the project from feasibility to release and is a true champion of the customer."
