About Lorena Bedoya

As Client Services Assistant at Organizational Performance Group (OPG), I support the Partners and consulting staff in calendar management ensuring their time is maximized and in line with OPG's priorities. I also serve as project coordinator for client engagements including team retreats, strategic planning events, and open enrollment workshops liaising with client representatives to coordinate meetings, event planning, and logistics. As a team member of OPG, I developed agendas, PPT presentations, teambuilding activities, and facilitation skills for our monthly in-person and virtual staff meetings and bi-weekly staff check-ins.Working in the organizational development field has helped me realize that my passion is to be part of the success of an organization that drives its mission to serve others with compassion and empathy. Born in Ecuador, I appreciate and understand the multi-cultural aspects of employee experience in different working environments. I am excited about the opportunity to bring my bi-lingual skills to the workplace in all aspects of communication.My goal is to become the type of leader that creates a positive and inspiring working environment. I believe that including the voices of all team members, regardless of their role, in the decision-making process is vital to cultivate strong working relationships based on trust and open communication to create an organizational culture that exudes collaboration within the team. My inspiration comes from a former leader that I worked with over the years who taught me that "if it is meant to be, it is up to me" and to start with the "why" we do what we do. These teachings have led me to understand that the "why" teaches, inspires, and motivates one to drive forward with purpose and deeply become part of a positive outcome. I want to bring this type of motivation to the next level of my career.Skills:-Administrative Assistant with a focus on Project Management and Event Planning with 18 years of experience, including 3+ years of remote work experience.-High regard for confidentiality and discretion when deemed necessary.-Offering versatile office management, planning, and organizational skills to work in a fast-paced environment.-Problem solver adapts to change, works independently, and eager to explore and learn new skills.
