About Wayne Downey

A vision without a strategy remains an illusion, and a strategy without process is little more than a wish list ....I am a strategic operations manager with expertise in global training, quality assurance, and new business development. An analytical business partner with strong account and project management skills and a demonstrated ability to identify and implement risk and crisis management and communication processes that support the company. I remain calm when faced with adversity and am focused on making high-quality decisions. I am a collaborative leader with the ability and passion to create and direct high performing teams that deliver value and innovative solutions.Spanning 18+ years with Schlumberger I progressed through various roles, from entry level field positions (MWD-DX-DD), to front line management (Service Quality Coach, FSM/DD Coordinator), middle management (Location Manager, Quality & Operations Support Manager, US Land Operations Manager), and upper management (North America Land Operations Manager) as well as branch out to different disciplines - New Ventures Business Development Manager and BDM for Extreme (Schlumberger's Sales and Rental Product Line). Throughout the entire journey I was driven by a need to improve any and all aspects that I could; be it the customer experience, employee empowerment and mentoring and of course my own personal development to not just be a better manager, but a better person, and have my professional skill set help transform the person I am in society.I'm excited about this next phase in my journey and can't wait to change the trajectory of NEWSCO as a service company and respected member of the community.
