Result-oriented and structured Senior Project Manager and Program Manager with experience ranging from technical infrastructure solutions and application development to business requirement analysis and Service Improvement Programs. My industry experience includes financial services, payment card industry, heavy industry, chemical industry, public services and telecommunication.Although I do have a quite technical background (hardware, OS, middleware, programming, security and web technologies) and a quick grasp on technological concepts, my business acumen and education enables me to take leadership on all levels, from deeply technical designs to process implementations and business oriented endeavors.The countries I have worked in are Germany, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland and Sweden while leading virtual teams with members in UK, USA, India, Italy, Spain and Lithuania.Mitigating cultural differences, getting people from diverse backgrounds to work together and for each other is something that deeply fascinates me and drives the success of the projects I am managing.It is my strong believe that a skilled Project Manager can manage any kind of project, if he possesses the gift to quickly delve into any new subject matter just deep enough to use his PM skills to full effect.I believe myself to possess this gift.Specialties: Financial Services Industry, bridge between business and IT, skilled communicator, Project management processes and methodologies, cultural diplomat
