Cori Hord Email & Phone Number

A global leader of people, process, and technology, I have a 20-year record leveraging business acumen, technology, and internal relationships to improve operational processes and manage the risks inherent in global public and private companies.With a foundation in business process improvement at Big 4 consulting, I have spent my career helping companies address complex issues through game-changing project management. A go-to problem solver and internal consultant with a big-picture perspective, I have built my success on my ability to quickly assess issues and provide pragmatic solutions that have improved efficiency and reduced cost. Highly accountable to end results, I am passionate about delving into businesses and streamlining processes all with an eye toward delivering desired financial results. I also have a great depth of know-how when it comes to taking an idea, developing it, and seeing it through execution. Recognized for having an immediate impact in areas in and out of my comfort zone, I have been consistently tapped to take on more including risk management, compliance and ethics, safety systems and metrics, and business policy. Moving easily from strategy to execution, I have gained the confidence of senior leadership to effectively protect company interests.My approach is to look at a business problem from its root cause and figure out the most effective solution – whether that’s consolidating functions resulting from complex M&A or ensuring business continuity – or what I find are disconnects. Well-intentioned individuals may start with doing what they believe best, however, what I come across are inconsistencies. These inconsistencies often lead to inefficiencies or obstacles to success. Uncovering these is like investigative work and what I do best.Strengths:Operational, Safety & Security Risk Assessments & Plans | Business Continuity Planning | Compliance Programs | Internal Controls | Strategic Planning | Contract Management | Budget Leadership | Client Engagement | Team Leadership | Board Presentations | Program & Project Management | M&A Due Diligence & Integration | Analytics, Dashboards, KPI’s | Systems ImplementationIndustries: Power, Utilities, Oil & Gas, Construction, Manufacturing, Supply ChainCertifications: Project Management Professional (PMP) ®; Certified Compliance and Ethics Professional (CCEP); Certified Lead Auditor ISO 9001, BSI; Contract Management Certificate, UC, IRVINE; Lean Six Sigma Green Belt, PURDUE UNIVERSITYSoftware/Technology Implementation: PeopleSoft; JD Edwards; Oracle Implementations
