Hello, I’m Catherine Bieri, a seasoned start-up business professional that is passionate about bringing people together, strategizing ideas, and effectively turning concepts into reality. I am the co-owner of three fins coffee roasters. We are a small batch coffee roaster located on Cape Cod. We roast every bean we sell inside our beautiful industrial style coffee house. We also sell beans online - this is some of the freshest coffee you can buy. Previously, I spent more than a decade holding positions of CIO and Executive Director for Mobile Operators in the US and Internationally, building out their IT departments delivering value added IT solutions, from license award to product launch and operational transition.I enjoy working on large projects (with large ideas) and breaking them into practical and executable plans. Adding value, being part of the big picture, and sourcing the right people and partners for execution and long-term relationships energize me.MOBILE STARTUPSWorking as part of the initial team finalizing product definition with full P&L responsibility for department build-out and delivering IT solutions for Belgacom Mobile (Belgium), Aerial Communications (Chicago) ONE (Austria), assorted Air Touch properties (now branded as Verizon and Vodaphone).BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT• CELL C MVNO Division (South Africa), Mobile Elements, Lucent Technologies, Cisco SystemsSYSTEM STRATEGY AND DELIVERY• Define/Implement IT product strategy to meet the business and product objectives• Systems sourcing, RFP creation and response, Roadmap creation• Budget & Project Planning and Management• Staffing, partnering, contract negotiation, and SLA managementOPERATIONS & PROCESSES • Re-organization assessment / alignment, change management & governance, managed services, vendor management, business process improvement
