I managed the technical learning products produced by the L&D team for the client department, engineering. This was a mix of 'hands on' work where I was an individual contributor creating content, and acting as a product/program manager setting specifications and guiding the work of vendors and internal instructors producing content. - Project managed the creation of new class content- Hosted Ask-Me-Anything session with new hires, producer for Engineer Tech Talk series, Arranged and managed PMP CSPO and CSM training series- Public spokesperson and scriptwriter 7x 1min Instragram videos on Cruise technology; To ease patent examination of Cruise applications, delivered Cruise tech overview and Q&A for USPTO examiners annually 3xhttps://www.instagram.com/reel/CpBJxSOu3BM/?hl=en- Hypothesis testing: Cruise needed 24/7 incident response to be a core competency, but response quality varied. Interviewed engineers and managers to validate structural, knowledge & skill gaps. Resulted in a targeted & brief intervention, avoiding a mistargeted and overbroad eLearning (Saved learners 100s hrs, higher effectiveness)- Hired and oversaw training vendors to address strategic needs (e.g. project mgmt training); 16 contracts over time, worth ~$1.5M; Held high expectations, changed suppliers when warranted, always treated vendors with respect- Wrote javascript automation & integration (Google Apps Script) for L&D systems, as team spent too much time with rote tasks; e.g. Learning Mgmt System (LMS)->Gsheet dashboards; Linkedin API uploads; CSV employee data->GSheet->LMS API upload; Saved 100s hrs of L&D team time; dramatically reduced data entry delays, saving time for 1000s employees

This onboarding program received the 2022 Excellence in Practice award from the Association for Talent Development (https://www.td.org/excellence-in-practice-award-winners). Engineers left clear on where they fit, networked with key experts, with tools configured, oriented on key processes, saving ~$15M of employee time.- Planning, executing, and managing onboarding programs for general audiences and engineers- People Manager training and development- Hiring and developing the L&D team as company scaled up (hired 6)- Interviewing skills training programs- Engineering tools training programs

I was recruited into this role by the SVP of Sales&Marketing. I had managed the OSIsoft Youtube learning channel, and the videos I was producing were a hit with customers and sales. I can create a snappy message with realistic problems and technical accuracy, without losing the audience in techno babble.- Collaborate with Product Manager team to ensure what we're selling is connected to the reality of engineering and support, and what we're building is connected to the reality of sales and marketing. - Interview account managers, customers, and partner companies to ensure product messaging hits the mark- Adapt and summarize industry-specific examples from industry experts into formats and phrasing that the generalist account managers can use- During Product Launch, responsible for consist and high-quality product messaging- Create product marketing media (videos, written documents, slide decks, infographics, webinars) to support the sales team during the sales cycle- I coached the sales team and industry principals, presented at our user conference, taught classes to customers, and asked lots of questions of our experts and customersWhat I learned:- I mastered something I call the '4 Point Story', a framework to turn techno babble into an understandable story. Feel free to ask me about it- Be a storyteller: say it in simple terms. Be entertaining, coherent, and concise.- To show value, the words from marketing need to cite the customer pain points and the solution the product provides. Not just a feature list. Here's a sampling of videos I've made: PI as Infrastructure:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lrEw1bKTkpkMike's Gas Turbines & The PI System:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LOGIBYODN4Q
