Eric Ness is a Operations Manager Data Forecast Analytics at Optum. He possess expertise in sdlc, sql, leadership, management, project management and 11 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "Eric is someone who can quickly evaluate problems to find their root cause and develop solutions. His ability to focus on the big picture through the frequently changing Centralized Distribution Hub project and wear many hats (including project management) had proven effective to stay in-scope and keep us BAs on track. His approachable attitude, willingness to share ideas and fun sense of humor are only a few (of many) reasons why I would enjoy working with him again." and "Eric started on our team as a Senior BA, then moved into the Lead role -- guiding the team through leadership changes. He quickly built strong relationships with the BA's, and effectively coached them in an unsteady environment. When we needed help in the PM area, Eric willingly took on that role too -- managing both the BA team and a significant part of the project at the same time. Again, his relationship building skills were evident as he strengthened relationships with our business partners. Eric did a great job balancing numerous conflicting priorities. And, best of all, he's a pleasure to work with."
