Flexible, adaptable and curious, I am always looking to find a better way. I make a difference by blending robust governance, planning and risk management with a deeply people-centered approach. Getting alongside stakeholders is key to my success, be they senior leaders, front line staff or external customers, because ultimately great projects are delivered by people, for people.Recently I've been honing my change management skills, embedding a new operating model with new teams, new technology and new ways of working. I've been learning how to shift from managing a project to embedding new ways of working to support an agile product lifecycle. All projects are about change and all projects are unique. I bring a flexible, outcomes-focused approach. I'm skilled at adapting agile, and traditional approaches to deliver value faster. Who I work with:My clients are CIOs, Portfolio Managers or Senior Managers of Government agencies and large organisations. I work with them from start-up, developing business and investment cases through to completion. I’m also great at stepping in mid-project when new energy and a fresh approach are needed to turn the project round and deliver it successfully to closure. Personal noteI am a cook and an entertainer. I love bringing people together and hosting them to have a great time. People say I am vibrant, optimistic, that I always rise to a challenge and am able to find a way to do the seemingly impossible.Key projects I’ve worked on: • Website upgrade, Strategy development, new operating model, RBNZ• Exchange Email migration and upgrade at Ministry of Justice• Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe) Agile work stream of business improvement change • Roadmap and business case for Booking Services, and Identity and Access management, DOC• Replacement of Booking Services roadmap and business case, DOC• ECMaaS implementation project, DOC • New Employee Portal integrated with Jade HRMIS, DOC• Website Sharepoint Upgrade, Te Papa • Intranet Sharepoint Upgrade, Te Papa • Cloud eCommerce service including integrated bespoke Point of Sale
