An experienced multi-generational leader I am skilled at managing people, navigating and creating organizational change strategies, and developing and integrating strategy. Known for the ability to lead diverse teams, develop creative solutions, through effective data utilization, and development of innovative tactics to help organizations exceed their goals.DIVERSITY OF EXPERIENCE = SUCCESS IN OPERATIONAL MGMTI’ve appreciated the diversity of operational experience afforded by my career pathway from telecommunications to education. Progression into increasingly complex roles has allowed me to hone leadership skills from the unique challenges of each position, with experience driving complex change management, process re-engineering, ROI, employee engagement, and market transformation. APPROACH TO PROBLEM-SOLVINGI’ve found success by marrying both conventional and nonconventional approaches to problem-solving. Utilizing Design Thinking with my projects to engage all levels of the organization has provided robust solutions to the most difficult tasks. Equally important, the use of both case study and qualitative/quantitative analysis to determine the best path forward and arrive at innovative solutions to complex problems. ENGAGING TEAMSI’m interested in learning what makes people tick and trying different approaches to see what clicks. I am fascinated by the generational mix in the workplace and believe our most important role as leaders is to create a workspace that leverages talent and fosters idea generation.
